The video premiering tonight is all about the archaeology of giants: was there an ancient mythic race of giant humanoids that roamed the earth? What evidence is there of giants in archaeology? Where does modern obsession with them come from? Looking into the answers to these questions and more, join me in the live chat at 7:30PM, see you there!

Tune in tonight to dig deep into the fate of Cleopatra's 4 children: Caesarion, Alexander Helios, Cleopatra Selene and Ptolemy Philadelphus. Orphaned by their parents death's and the last scions of the Ptolemaic dynasty this video explores their lives through poems, historic texts, coins and more. Join me for the premiere live chat at 7:30PM.

Indy stream is postponed to next week because the toddler brought home a nasty virus from nursery, gave it to me and now my throat is on fire.

Here is my for-fun reading pile for 2025 (so much smaller now that I have a baby). I've been using my bookshelf as my video background for years and occasionally I see a comment asking about my choice of reading material. To save you all having to pause and squint to make out what's in my library I've made an Amazon storefront with my books, both archaeological and recreational, as well as a few extra goodies.. Go have a look and happy reading! www.amazon.co.uk/shop/insidearchaeology

Hit 50K subscribers today. It is surreal that in the space of 1 year that number quadrupled after 9 years of grinding and almost giving up a few times. I just wanted to jump on and say thanks to all of you who watch and follow my little archaeological journey here on the internet. Your time and attention are truly noticed and appreciated (I try to respond to as many comments as I can) and I only hope we can continue the upward trajectory from here on out! Here's to getting to 100K in 2026 (...or at least as close as I can get).

Also don't forget to vote for your favourite Archaeology Discovery of 2025, the form closes next weekend! forms.gle/kLZ9sQUY8FEx6VnS8
