Mon, 30 Sep 2024 - 283 - Dealing With Your Demons, Medieval Style - Ep 280
This week we take a closer look at three archaeology news articles. In Norway, an archaeology rescue program is finding and recovering archaeological remains when they are exposed to air by glacial melt. Some of the artifacts are incredibly well preserved examples of organic material that normally doesn't survive the archaeological record. Then we head over to the United States and take a look at a new evidence at a paleolithic hunting camp in Michigan, where researchers have found evidence of what animals they were processing with the store tools. And finally, a medieval grave of a child in Poland appears to have been buried with extreme anti-vampire measures.

Mon, 16 Sep 2024 - 281 - Inbreeding Christians, Unreadable Text, and Boats Built in Plain Sight - Ep 278
The first news story this week used DNA to find out some interesting things about some Christians in Spain. Not only were they inbreeding, likely to keep their faith and lines pure, but they had small pox and some other interesting characteristics. Next we learn about a small disc found on the island of Crete with an unreadable script on it. Finally, how did early Scandinavian's build boats? Perhaps the evidence has always been there.

Mon, 02 Sep 2024 - 279 - Big Animals and the Humans That Love (to eat) Them - Ep 276
Today's episode is all about mega-fauna and human interactions. Our first story takes us to a creek in Iowa where the first complete mastodon for that state has been found. Next we go to UC Berkeley where researchers think they've figured out, through research and experimental archaeology, how early humans took down those big animals. Finally we move over to Spain where new research is suggesting that Neanderthals didn't ONLY eat big, slow, animals but adapted to take down smaller game. They were smarter than we think they were, of course!

Mon, 29 Apr 2024 - 263 - How Technological Innovation Can Drive Greater Accessibility and Inclusivity in Archaeology - Ep 260
Archaeology is always seen as a field pursuit and for the most part, it is. However the interpretations of archaeology should be accessible to all. Our guests today, Dr. Alessandro Sebastiani and Dr. Laura Morabito presented their thoughts on accessibility in archaeology at the World Archaeology Summit in AlUla, Saudi Arabia in September 2023. They discuss things like 3D reconstruction and VR as tools to bring people to archaeological sites and research without physically bringing them there.

Sun, 27 Aug 2023 - 233 - Deconstructing the Stone, Bronze, and Iron Ages - Ep 230
We mention there is a YouTube video of this episode. Well, that was before we tried to edit it. There was a big error that couldn't be overcome in the processing of the video. So, you don't get to see Chris' ugly face and Rachel's face-for-video…maybe next week! Lately it seems like every archaeology news article we read references the Stone, Bronze or Iron Age as a hook in the headline. We were curious, where does this come from, and is it valid to continue using it today? Join us for a deep dive on the origins of the Three Part Age system, whether it still holds up, or if it is an idea that just doesn't apply to our current understanding of the ancient world.

Sun, 25 Jun 2023 - 225 - The Archaeology of Handedness, or, how evolution hates lefties! - Ep 222
Chris, one of the hosts, is a lefty. He's always had to deal with what that means. But, why are 85% of humans right-handed while only a disproportionate few are left-handed? It's not fair! But, it is evolutionary. On today's episode we talk about how we know when handedness in humans likely developed and why it was the right side that became dominant. Segment two features an interview for Lana Ruck, an archaeologist that studied handedness for her Master's research.

This week we happened to find 3 news stories about evidence for eating and cooking food in the ancient world. First up is the first evidence of Homo Erectus cooking fish 780,000 years ago. Then, we fast forward to 70,000 years ago and leftover evidence of a Neanderthal meal gives us insight into how they prepared food. And finally, in Rome new excavations under the coliseum reveal the kind of snacks that spectators would have enjoyed. For our members [https://www.archpodnet.com/members], we have a bonus segment describing how one journalist attempted to recreate the Neanderthal meal that we discussed in segment 2!

Sun, 04 Dec 2022 - 198 - Ancient Apocalypse or Modern Lies? - Ep 195
CORRECTION: Graham Hancock wrote Fingerprints of the Gods NOT Chariots of the Gods which was written by Erich von Däniken. Our apologies for mixing up the two titles! The latest archaeological injustice from Graham Hancock is in the form of a brand new, and popular, Netflix series called Ancient Apocalypse. We talk about the eight-episode series, what we liked and what we didn't. Is Graham Hancock right? Is there evidence of an ancient civilization that lived during the last ice age that some how didn't make it through the ice age but did have time to reboot civilization in the people that were left? We'll see.

Sun, 13 Nov 2022 - 195 - An Archaeological History of New York City - Ep 192
New York City has had a long and varied history. From the time of the Native Americans to the late 1800s when the boroughs were folded into the city limits many people, cultures, and events have left their mark. That mark leaves a material culture that has been excavated by teams of archaeologists over the last half-century or more. That artifact collection now has a home and as a result, this book was written to tell the story OF that collection. We bring on two of the four authors in this episode to talk about the book and the city. Nan A. Rothschild is an urban social archaeologist who was Ann Whitney Olin Professor of Anthropology at Barnard College and is adjunct professor at Columbia University. H. Arthur Bankoff is the advisor to the chair for archaeology at the New York City Landmarks Preservation Commission and is a professor emeritus in the Department of Anthropology at Brooklyn College, City University of New York.

Sun, 06 Nov 2022 - 194 - PROMO: Forges, fieldwork, and frying pans - Tea Break 3
The Archaeology Podcast Network is taking a bit of a break for October, 2022. In the mean time, we're introducing you to some of the other fantastic shows that we produce. Here's an episode from one of our newer shows, "Tea Break Time Travel." Enjoy! The trowel is generally considered to be the essential piece in any archaeologist's toolkit, but how long have trowels been around and what kinds of trowels can you use in excavations? In this episode, Matilda chats with professional archaeologist and blacksmith Dr Zechariah Jinks-Fredrick about why we choose the tools that we do, but also the development of metal tools and metalworking in the past. What's the difference between a cow bone and a trowel? Very little apparently...

Sun, 16 Oct 2022 - 193 - PROMO: Domestication and Human Brain Size with Stefan Milo - A Life in Ruins 105
The Archaeology Podcast Network is taking a bit of a break for October, 2022. In the mean time, we're introducing you to some of the other fantastic shows that we produce. Here's the "A Life in Ruins" Podcast with one of their more popular episodes. Enjoy! On this episode of A Life In Ruins Podcast, we have our good friend and frequent collaborator Stefan Milo on the podcast. Stefan is in the process of researching for a video on human brain size, and we talk about what he has found. Researchers have noted a decrease in brain size in humans within the last 30,000 years. We take a deep dive into how brain size has changed throughout the evolution of the genus Homo and potential reasons for the decrease in brain size. We talk about the possibility of human self-domestication and the theories surrounding it. Links * When and Why Did Human Brains Decrease in Size?

It's been a few weeks since we have had a news episode and in that time there has been so many great stories we had trouble deciding which ones to chose! First up is a million year old skull found in in China. Then we head over to Greece where researchers theorize that mysterious stone spheres are part of a board game. And finally, a discussion about the recent Scientific American cover story "The Power of Viking Women." Interested in sponsoring this show or podcast ads for your business?

Sun, 02 Oct 2022 - 191 - The New Science of Archaeoecology - Ep 190
On this episode Dr. Stefani Crabtree and Dr. Jennifer Dunne join us to discuss their recent paper on the new field of Archaeoecology. While it is often acknowledged that there is an overlap between the fields of archaeology and ecology, it has not been defined as a separate area of study until now. The study of Archaeoecology aims to show not only how humans impact nature, but also how the ecosystems they lived within shaped human culture and dynamics. **Coprolites were recovered nearby in Paisley Cave. Luther Cressman recovered sagebrush sandals from Fort Rock Cave, but noted that Paisley Cave was likely "one of the most important sites for Early [humans] in the whole West" where the coprolites were later recovered by Dennis Jenkins and his team.

Sun, 18 Sep 2022 - 189 - Experimental Archaeology - Ep 188
In the subfield of experimental archaeology, researchers use historic and pre-historic methods and materials to recreate different artifacts and items in the archaeological record. By doing this we learn how peoples of the past made the things we find during excavation, which adds to the context of the life people lived at that particular time period. This week we discuss 3 examples of experimental archaeology in the news including the boomerang as a multi-use tool, how large pots were created in Crete, and the reinterpretation of an artifact found at Sutton Hoo.

Sun, 11 Sep 2022 - 188 - A Cultural History of Glacier National Park - Ep 187
We recently spent some time in Glacier National Park, and while we were there we took a tour of the park lead by Jack Gladstone, a member of the Blackfeet Nation in Montana. We were blown away by not only his cultural knowledge of the area, but also his amazing singing and songwriting! We just had to share (with Jack's permission of course!) some of the tour, plus some information on the prehistoric peoples of the area, the historic development of Glacier into a national park, and some of the recent archaeology they have found in the park.
