#Derbyshire #Archaeology has been on holiday

In our occasional series featuring very big sections and daring PPE, here's Denis Peyrony, one of the pioneers of French prehistory, standing below this whopping 7m sequence at La Micoque rock shelter in 1931.

Fear not, he has his safety beret on!

The problem is that we don't just have to overcome Trump and the MAGA mindset, it's that -- OK. Have you ever taken a wrong turn on a long drive and realized it like an hour later? You haven't just failed to make progress you've actively gone backwards and now you have to retrace your steps

hi @yorkarchaeology.bsky.social have you seen this?
Another development to this story - some beautifully preserved wicker panels (with thanks to York Archaeology again) which presumably formed part of another fish weir. A Saxon date seems likeliest given their proximity to the previous structures.

Cropmark spotting for a Friday afternoon - can you see it? Tramlines turning a 'playing card corner' (plot on the right). Looks to be a Roman marching camp her.derbyshire.gov.uk/Monument/MDR... next to the 'Via Devana' road (red line top right) as it approached the Trent

On site with CFA Archaeology at Milford Mill, working with the developer to conserve the World Heritage water management of the 1782 print/bleach mill - leats, wheel pit, bridges and tail race - within their housing scheme. This relieving arch carried the mill foundations over the tail race.

A chilly morning in the Trent Valley for some fish weir archaeology courtesy of York Archaeology - part of our planning role monitoring archaeological work in Derbyshire quarries. Dated examples range from early Saxon to Tudor - what's your guess for this one? Rangefinder radiocarbon being taken ...

I sincerely don’t know why people aren’t physically stopping those dorks. Move shit. Lock doors. Lose the keys. Everyone switch seats. Turn off all the lights. Switch the signs on the elevator lobby. Make the settings all silly. Use a different language. Wear costumes. Fill rooms with balloons
