And what a workshop is was, with brilliant colleagues and lots of parchment! I honestly think this summit started something that will change our perceptions of the Nordic Middle Ages in the coming years. Thank you for hosting us, @ercb2c & @DetKglBibliotek!

It is just extraordinary- from the very start of this clip - that every element of solemnity around him - the dark clothes, the medals and the rest - will require him to take the limelight and stage a scene from Mr.Bean.

I thoroughly recommend reading the new paper on birthing girdles by @DrSFiddyment & colleagues. It addresses my musings, has all kinds of really fascinating historical detail, fancy ancient proteomics, and is beautifully written and accessible: royalsocietypublishing.org/d…

Until recent times, childbirth was the most dangerous moment in a woman's life. In the Middle Ages, monks even made talismans to shield women from danger. @DrSFiddyment recently showed one was used during delivery. I wrote about her find @NewsfromScience: sciencemag.org/news/2021/03/…
