Ooh marvellous, an article what I wrote about the history of discovery in the Valley of Kings & elsewhere has made it onto the cover of @HistoryRevMag. Who found which tombs - Belzoni, Loret, Davis, Carter - and who came up with the KV numbering system? It's all in there :)
Our latest issue is on sale now β grab a copy to uncover the secrets of the lost tombs of the pharaohs, the tragic tale of the nine-day-queen Lady Jane Grey and the fall of Richard Nixon.

Anyone wanting to learn more about #MaryAnning, check out new issue of @HistoryRevMag which has a whole article I wrote dedicated to her as a genuine pioneer.
So I think we should see #MaryAnning on the new Β£50 note - a working class woman who despite the barriers of class and race contributed hugely to science. Who's with me? @MaryAnningRocks @FossilFestival @LymeRegisMuseum @cpdinosaurs @holland_tom @SteveBrusatte @NHMdinolab
