The "Mane" Event with Dr. William Taylor - Ruins 80 Nov 01, 2021

Show notes

For this episode, we are joined again by Dr. William Taylor, who first appeared on the podcast in episode 25. We start out by discussing Dr. Taylor's COVID experience as a new professor and how his museum projects had to change to adapt to the new COVID landscape. We then delve into the research surrounding the Lehi horse. Dr. Taylor explains his methods of analysis and how they can be used to tell us about individual specimens, while also contributing to the larger discipline. We then talk about his research on early horse domestication at the Botai site.

Let's Call It a Ritual Object - Dirt 161 Nov 01, 2021

Show notes

Thanks to everyone who came out to our virtual live show! This is the edited audio of that event. We talk about the role of ritual in daily life, how our big round human brains have evolved the ability to think about abstract meaning and ritual significance, and the theory underpinning all of this. We also take a trip to two incredible archaeological sites to think about how the people living there might have thought about the unknown and unseen in their lives. Whoa.
