Very saddened to learn of the passing of Dr. Robert Morkot. He was my advisor during my masters at the University of Exeter. He was an excellent scholar and a nice man. Rest In Peace Robert 💔

Now that could ruin your day

This skull, pierced by an iron nail, belonged to a young man, between 16 and 18 years old, who died in the late third or early second century BC.

We're in the Iberian town of Ullastret, located in the Baix Emporda region of Catalonia, home to the largest Iberian settlement in Catalonia dating to around 550 BC.
