Am an archaeologist particularly interested in archaeometallurgy, photos and music.

Bio

An archaeologist who despite my low pay still manages to spend an absurdly large amount on music. Oh well. I like taking photos all over the place, Sudan, Spain, Istanbul, London, rural England and have a particular like for graffiti where ever it is.

All my photos are (or should be) Creative Commons licenced as Attribution-Noncommercial-Share Alike.

I'm also mattnic on Flickr, Twitter, LastFM and Google.

Today (26/07/08) was a rare chance to wander on the foreshore of the Thames in front of the Tower of London. A fake beach, constructed in the 18th century out of dumped rubbish (bricks, pottery, clay pipes, slag, bits of metal etc) to enable boats to be pulled ashore, this area is normally closed to the public. As part of National Archaeology Week it is opened up with a host of archaeologists to tell you about what you find...and you get to take the material home (assuming it isn't a Roman brooch or a medieval crown that is!). Click on 'All Sizes' to see, well, all sizes.

...photo of slag for a bit, I promise. A side on view of one of the full antimony smelting slag blocks. They make rather pretty garden walls.
