Granatiere Monument

Standing at the foot of the Granatieri di Sardegna monument on Monte Cengio, I shot from a low angle to accentuate the powerful silhouette of the Grenadier sculpture. Crafted from wartime iron scraps and shrapnel, the textured figure reaches toward the bright sky, standing as a solemn, striking tribute to the history embedded in these rocks.

“I Shal Nat Lyen. That Bloody Well Hurt!”

Battle of Shrewsbury Medieval weekend 25 to 26/07/26 held at the Battlefield 1403 Farm shop and Heritage Park site on the outskirts of Shrewsbury in Shropshire. Battlefield church is nearby.

The highlight of the weekend was a re-enactment of the battle fought on 21st July 1403 on or around the same site, between an army led by the Lancastrian King Henry IV and a rebel army led by Henry "Harry Hotspur" Percy from Northumberland. The battle, the first in which English archers fought each other on English soil, reaffirmed the effectiveness of the longbow and ended the Percy challenge to King Henry IV of England.

There were knights in armour, knights on horseback, archers and living history displays and demonstrations, including traditional crafts and cookery.

“A Walk in the Park” – Summer Teacher Institute

This 5-day intensive teacher training seminar seeks to familiarize middle and high school instructors with the rich history and archaeology of the Royce Hanson Conservation Park (RHCP). Upon completion of the seminar, teachers will be conversant with the potential classroom applications of the site’s on-line archive. They will have developed lesson plans that draw upon the park to enhance their teaching on a variety of local, national, and global history and archaeology topics. Additionally, teachers will explore the process behind the development of the RHCP site with an eye toward engaging students in reflections on public history and archaeology as professions. Photos were taken at Poolesville High School.

“Since yesterday, SHE has been taking the photos herself...
and with what enthusiasm! Her fear of the technology was forgotten overnight. After all, she had the right film in her camera right from the start:

PERUTZ—the film for sharp images. And what’s more, PERUTZ film features a “built-in safeguard”: its wide exposure latitude.”

Bhimbetka_007

Bhimbetka, located in the foothills of the Vindhya Range in Madhya Pradesh, is one of India’s most remarkable prehistoric archaeological sites. Situated about 45 km south of Bhopal, the site consists of massive sandstone formations containing natural rock shelters that were occupied and used by humans over thousands of years. These shelters preserve an extraordinary record of human life through paintings depicting animals, hunting scenes, dancing, rituals, daily activities and social life. Archaeological excavations have also revealed evidence of Stone Age cultures, including stone tools and other remains. The site was brought to modern archaeological attention by archaeologist V. S. Wakankar in 1957, although references to the area existed much earlier. The paintings represent different periods, with the earliest generally associated with the Mesolithic era and later artwork continuing into historic times.

The importance of Bhimbetka lies not only in the age of its paintings but in the continuous relationship it demonstrates between humans and their natural environment. The artwork provides rare insights into prehistoric communities, their relationship with animals, hunting and gathering practices, and their artistic expression. The surrounding landscape and nearby tribal communities also retain cultural traditions that show connections with the heritage represented in the shelters. Recognising its outstanding archaeological and cultural value, UNESCO declared the Rock Shelters of Bhimbetka a World Heritage Site in 2003 under cultural criteria (iii) and (v). Today, Bhimbetka stands as a remarkable visual archive of early human civilisation in the Indian subcontinent and offers visitors a unique opportunity to experience the deep history of human creativity, survival and interaction with nature.
