This stone circle is Callanish Stones, a 5,000-year-old prehistoric monument on the Isle of Lewis in the Outer Hebridies in Scotland. It was used for 2,000 years. Patrick Ashmore, who excavated there in the early 1980 says that every 18.6 years, the moon skims especially low. #StandingStoneSunday

Kathleen Kenyon was a trailblazer and the archaeologist excavating Jewry Wall. Now her notebook has ended up as an object in the exhibition at Jewry Wall. Every archaeologist needs a good notebook! The golden ring was identified by her as an important find. #FindsFriday

@ntnsndr@social.coop I found out yesterday that Meta has used my PBSR articles and other material unknowingly to me to train their AI. They used a pirate site to do this. Bandits! 🤯
