New Year\'s Honours: Allason-Jones receives OBE

[mcbishop]

Formerly of Newcastle University, Allason-Jones is a significant figure within Roman military studies, particularly for her work on leather but also on small finds from the north of Britain in general.

The merest quibble, but I think Lindsay is better known for her work on jet and shale than leather; that's more Carol van Driel-Murray's field ;-) Definitely good news, though.
