Neolithic Drum Sculpture, Homo Sapiens in Europe, and the Coronado Expedition - TAS 159 Feb 20, 2022

Show notes

This week we have three super interesting news stories that grabbed our attention. First, a beautiful carved chalk drum was found with a Neolithic child burial in the UK. Second, new evidence shows the entry of Homo Sapiens into Europe may have been 10,000 years early than researchers previously realized. And finally, an archaeologist in Arizona claims to have found evidence that re-maps the route taken by the Coronado Expedition in 1540.

Historical Archaeology for the Future - HeVo 60 Feb 15, 2022

Show notes

On today’s podcast Jessica interviews Dr. Ayana Omilade Flewellen (they/she), Assistant Professor in the Department of Anthropology at the University of California, Riverside. Through Dr. Flewellen’s work in historical archaeology of the African Diaspora focusing on the era of Enslavement and post-emancipation, we talk about how the way people, in this case Black women, dress and adorn themselves and how those practices are shaped by larger factors, including racism and sexism. We also dive into the work of the Society of Black Archaeologists and Diving With a Purpose to tell a larger story of Black history in the field of Anthropology and to the general public, as well as to provide opportunities for the next generation of Black scholars and maritime archaeologists.
