I'm at university for archaeology (paleolithic), and one of my TAs is a celtic archaeology P.HD student. She and I were just talking about this! Thanks for the great post--always love to see archaeology on Steem :)

Amazing. You probably know far more about it than I do! :)
I doubt that! My focus is in the overlap between modern humans, Denisovans, and Neanderthals, specifically in their fire and stone tool technologies and their varying propensities for creating material culture. I love Celtic archaeology, but the preservation of organic material in that part of the world is astoundingly bad because of the moisture, so a lot of the stuff I study never had a chance of surviving.
That's fascinating stuff. Perhaps you'll write more about it on your blog.
I'd love to! Unfortunately, most of my research is ongoing and still unpublished, so the stuff I'm directly involved in will need to wait. However, I could probably regurgitate some of my class papers on here. I have a recent one on the evolution of meat-eating in hominins...
