Great to see via Facebook that my Radiocarbon Dating comic that I did for the Center for Applied Isotope Studies (University of Georgia) has been donated to the group Archaeologists for Autism. They give the comic a double thumbs-up:

“It is a struggle each year to find archaeology materials for the AFA goodie bags besides posters. This [comic] is exactly the type of thing needed to educated and promote archaeology for everyone – it’s inclusive, bilingual [in English and Spanish], well done and fun. We need more materials like this…”

Very proud to get such a positive review. And the best news is that there IS more material like this on its way: the next comic in the series – about lead isotope analysis – is finished and should hit the shelves soon!

You can order copies of the comics via the CAIS website.

It was a fascinating event, full of extraordinary ideas and some really interesting projects.

Pages from these comics are up on display in an exhibition at Oriel Sycharth at Glyndŵr University.
