    Archaeology of Middle Earth - Ep 130 Nov 14, 2022
    Show notes

    Just a heads-up, this episode was recorded back in September before the APN went on a brief recording hiatus. Chris and Rachel deserved the time off. This episode was recorded after Carlton and David had watched episode 3 of The Lord of the Rings: The Rings of Power. Since then, the show has wrapped up.

    In this episode, Carlton and David try to talk about the archaeology of Middle Earth. But they soon realize that archaeology may be pointless since elves are immortal and are living history tomes. So they review the show, nerd out about Tolkien's Middle Earth, and Carlton discusses the dystopian futurism themes in Lord of the Rings.

    Of Mountains, Exploration and Journalism: A Conversation with Matt Stirn - Ep 129 Nov 07, 2022
    Show notes

    On this episode of A Life In Ruins podcast Connor and David sit down with Matt Stirn, a professional archaeologist, photographer and journalist.

    After catching up, the podcast as usual begins with how Matt got into archaeology. And as you might’ve guessed, he’s involved with Wyoming archaeology, and got his start when he was only 13 years old.

    Matt ended up doing fieldwork in Colorado with Dr. Richard Adams in Colorado State University doing high altitude archaeology. He also was Connor‘s TA on his field school.

    Matt elaborates on his research and the importance of pinenuts two people living at high altitudes in Wyoming, and his masters thesis on predictive modeling regarding pine nuts and high altitude.

    We end the show with a conversation about Matt‘s current career and the state of archaeology. Matt took an interesting route becoming a journalist after becoming a scientist, and he discusses how that really benefits what he does now. Matt also gives advice to students looking to do something similar.

    PROMO - Sutton Hoo "Ghost Ship" and The Dig - The Archaeology Show 111 Oct 10, 2022
    Show notes

    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 The Archaeology Show about Sutton Hoo and the Netflix film, “The Dig”.

    With the recent release of The Dig, a Netflix film focused on the excavation of the incredible Anglo-Saxon burial ship at Sutton Hoo, we decided it was the perfect opportunity to take a closer look at this site! Sutton Hoo is extremely important and interesting for many reasons and we dive into those as well as review the movie. Did we like it? Join us and find out!

    We had so much to talk about that we couldn’t fit it all into the episode. Become an APN member to get access to the rest of the conversation!

    Show notes

    On this episode of the podcast, Connor and David sit down and chat with veteran guests Drs. Jesse Tune and Shane Miller to discuss the recent LSE mounds paper.

    They first dive into how Jesse and Shane have been on the show multiple times, and that they always have an educated and constructive conversation. Beginning with an overview of Southeastern archaeology and mound history, they then dive into the mounds. The hosts and guests discuss how the paper was published by geologists in a journal that isn’t known for archaeology. They also discuss how the dating and geology in the paper is a little odd.
