UPDATE January 2020
Dear subscribers,
Don’t worry, I’m not retiring from keeping this blog up to date. I just want to let you know that, this year somewhat later than usual, I will be making new archives pages for expired 2020 job adverts, which will cause inconvenience as automatically generated new post alerts.
Thank you for following. All best wishes for 2020.
Erik
P.S. (update) I just got a complaint about the automatically generated alerts using the term “useless”. Be kind, please, and archives are not useless (you should know as an archaeologist).
====================================
UPDATE January 2017
Dear subscribers,
I’m sorry about the inconvenience I’m causing you by creating new archives posts for 2017. Unfortunately the new post alert runs automatically.
Please remember and appreciate that I’m putting a lot of time in this, before you send me a complaint about this. (yes, there are people who are unappreciative and yes, an apology would be in order here)
Best wishes for 2017.

UPDATE June 2013
dear visitors,
WordPress changed the appearance settings of links, which makes this blog look awful. I’m trying to work my way around these new settings, i.e. find a new structure to present the same information.
Apparently, WordPress has also started placing ads on this blog, which I can’t see myself. Unfortunately, I don’t have money to buy them off.
