Welcome back everyone! We’re slowly putting our events together for the rest of the year, and are happy to have MUNL Alumni Johanna Cole joining us over Zoom for our first 2023 FABS talk, titled “Historic Sex Work in St. John’s + Experiences in Nova Scotia CRM”.

Johanna fills us in on her current research on historic sex work in St. John’s, as well as her experiences working in cultural resource management (CRM) archaeology in Nova Scotia. Johanna is currently working on her Masters in the Atlantic Canada Department at Saint Mary’s University and works in CRM. We can’t wait to hear updates on her research, and learn more about her time working in the field in Nova Scotia!

In case you missed our first FABS talk of 2021, please check out the recorded talk below, hosted on our youtube channel. The video is in two sections: the talk itself, and the questions period.

If you were a fan of ‘The Dig’, interested in the history and reality of the famous Sutton Hoo excavations and ship burial, how the excavations were carried out after this early period at the site, or just a fan of archaeology in general, check out this fabulous talk with our own President, Dr. Shannon Lewis-Simpson, and her husband Toby Simpson. Toby excavated at Sutton Hoo for many years, and offered us his unique insight into the work that went on there.

Enjoy!
