@caitlinrgreen Too much to take in on one reading, what a great title to the publication though. Perfect.
@JohnNewsham1 Agreed on both counts---a great book title and a fascinating, wide-ranging article! :)

@caitlinrgreen @mariadorleacu a high point of Palomba's archaeological career was to hold this beautiful broach in my hand
@Palomba19 @mariadorleacu I have never had the pleasure---am most jealous!!
@caitlinrgreen @mariadorleacu it was a great and memorable experience
@caitlinrgreen Lovely bag. I'd consider wearing a bag like that myself today.
@caitlinrgreen @BexHELLonSea This is so beautiful. Wow.
