The entries have been submitted and the suggestions of new initiatives in digital public engagement for linear earthworks were evaluated by a team of expert judges (aka Prof W + @Archaeos0up). We can now announce the winners of the scintillating and extravagant prizes! ๐Ÿฅณ๐Ÿค˜๐Ÿ‘‡
3rd PLACE: @megportal didn't just suggest a digital initiative, it was kick-started specially for #SpecialOffa with the first-ever entry for Offa's Dyke on The Megalithic Portal! https://www.megalithic.co.uk/article.php?sid=53414 Congratulations: an Offa's Dyke Path National Trail patch is yours!
DM @offasdykecentre your postal address and one of these sought after patches, in a colour of your choice, is yours! #SpecialOffa
DM @Archaeos0up with your postal address @louiseisabed and a wonderful Archaeosoup trowel/bottle-opener will be sent your way! I'm most envious! Congratulations!
Finally, 1st PLACE GOES TO: @Shallam1 for the suggestion that we create online lessons on the dykes designed for different learning stages! https://twitter.com/Shallam1/status/1246869956274393089. A truly awesome #SpecialOffa idea for a digital resource that deserves a print copy of the 'Offa's Dyke Journal'
If you would be so kind as to DM your postal address to this Twitter account, as soon as the lockdown is over, I'll post out a copy. Congratulations @Shallam1
But that's not all. We received other fabulous suggestions, plus presentations on the day contained excellent examples of digital engagement initiatives. For these, we offer #SpecialOffa @archaeosoup commendations!
