Fieldwork has been keeping me busy. Yesterday we found a Late (~2500 BC) sherd among our farmsteads (~1500 BC). It could be a remnant of older occupation, or it could be an intrusive find because a busy badger dug a lot of tunnels in this area 🦡😂

@ergative It's in Oss, a town in the south of the Netherlands 😊 we are digging there and training our first year archaeology students.

Ancient DNA sheds light on the genetic origins of early Iron Age Philistines

“Our analysis suggests that this genetic distinction is due to a European-related gene flow introduced in Ashkelon during either the end of the Bronze Age or the beginning of the Iron Age. This timing is in accord with estimates of the Philistines arrival to the coast of the Levant, based on archeological and textual records (2–4).”
