Not an archaeobotany post, but might be of interest to some
archaeobotanists, particularly those with extensive database experience. The
job is at the Millennium Seedbank at Wakehurst Place, deep in English
countryside. Would be open to all EU nationals.
If you are interested, please contact the
address of our personnel department, given in the advert, not me
personally, nor the Archaeobotany list.
