In the space of 48 hours I've resigned from my job at Oxford Uni and cancelled my membership of CIfA. That's me done as an academic and professional archaeologist after 24 years.

A large Iron Age cemetery containing the lavishly adorned remains of high-status individuals dating from around 2,000 years ago has been uncovered in Essex by CIfA Registered Organisation UCL Archaeology South-East: https://ow.ly/9yUn50Zrkyg

This is good to know! 🇨🇦

“CIFA added it performs routine testing of imported fresh produce, saying that Canada is “one of the few countries in the world” that routinely tests those items for the cyclospora parasite.”

Quebec tops 200 diarrhea-inducing cyclosporiasis cases. What's behind the uptick?
There are currently no food recalls related to cyclospora contamination, the Canadian Food Inspection Agency says.

Dear Canadian Food Inspection Agency #CIFA

It is time to fine grocers and retailers who ignore the #CIFA regulations and practice 'maple washing'.

The salary benchmarking results are out from CIfA. That's great.
What's not so great is what it shows. Compared to comparable sectors the salary progression is laughable. We should be furious.
Join a Union, join CIfA, study the sector, it's history and identify who has held us back.

Solo por compartir una buena noticia boludísima pero para recordarme cuando la normalidad me aplaste: Los del laburo de la publi que me comió todo el finde pero quedó re bien, decidieron pagarme acorde a la cifa inicial que había pasado antes de que me pidieran rebajarla. No es mucho pero sirve.

No County Archaeologist for Hamphire?? Hampshire heritage has taken a huge hit, museums personel have gone too. #CIfA Chartered Institute for Archaeologists & @bajr-badger.bsky.social 🏺
🚨 We have heard that the County Archaeologist for Hampshire is being made redundant, with no plans to replace him. 🚨
If you live in Hampshire please write to your MP and Councillors.
If you live elsewhere treasure and support your County Archaeologists, and stand by to protect them. 🏺

As someone who feels disconnected from the archaeological mainstream (universities, field units, CIfA, conference circuit etc), I really enjoyed speaking about castles for the Institute of Archaeologists of Ireland today. Felt like being welcomed in from the cold.

If you haven't read this important document for UK #archaeology then do, and read the heartbreaking appendix of comments. We shouldn't be here. Share, discuss, engage with CIFA, join a Union.
Ask why we can't have sustainable, prodessional wages within a sector worth £382 billion pounds. 🏺

I think idea of ‘sector leadership” is massively overstating any influence CIfA might have had/can have over employers. It’s been further dismantled recently but wasn’t ever that significant. The CIfA-FAME power struggle is a whole other tedious sh*tshow but remains hugely relevant for diversity.

11 Months ago I lead on an Open Letter to various archaeological organisations demanding resolute support for trans people in the face of the Supreme Court ruling and EHRC guidance. Over 700 archaeologists signed it.
