Interesting talk by Annie Thuesen
An excellent talk by Annie Thuesen of @INS_UHI for @OAS_Orkney & @BrodgarT #VikingWeek on Norse #Orkney and Tourism. It will be available online soon.
How do we ensure #Viking sites get the attention they deserve, given the physical remains are not as prominent as the Neolithic?

English Early Medieval royal household diets actually appear to be cereal based, with occasional meat-dominated feasts. @INS_UHI #placesofpower #thinkuhi

Lunch break - looks like a cheese and ham sandwich with ale should be on the menu if we are to stick to a theme! 馃槀 Really fascinating morning so far at @INS_UHI #placesofpower #thinkuhi
