He stands at just 5.5 cm tall and is in the collection at Manchester Museum.

My academic research focuses on archaeological theory (especially theories of "#place" as developed within humanistic geography in overlap with process philosophy), antiquarianism, #borderlands (different from #frontiers) of the #RomanEmpire, #SQL and data modeling in archaeology, and the dynamics of cultural and religious change in the first millennium AD/CE.
For 6 years (2010-16) I was Chair of the Theoretical Roman Archaeology Conference (#TRAC) Standing Committee.
