The Institute for Field Research - TAS 79 Dec 28, 2019

Show notes

The Institute for Field Research, or IFR, was started by Dr. Ran Boytner in 2011. Since then the IFR has helped organize field schools around the world and has even been branching out from just archaeology. On this episode April and Chris talk to Dr. Boytner about the IFR, how you get a field school into the IFR, and how students can apply.

New Advances in Oxygen Isotope Analysis with Dr. Corey Maggiano - ArchaeoTech 119 Dec 26, 2019

Show notes

Oxygen Isotope analysis has long been used to analyze a person’s skeletal material to find out where they lived and sometimes how they lived. Until now, this has been on a large time scale - often of years and decades. Now, with this new research, some cases can be analyzed down to the month or even tighter. It’s amazing research and further opens our window to the past.

Our Most Metal Episode of All Time - The Dirt 73 Dec 16, 2019

Show notes

Time to throw the devil horns and apply superfluous umlauts to vöwëls, because this week The Dirt is totally metal! Metallurgy, that is. How and when did humans first use metals, and what can we learn about them? Some come straight from the ground, others from far, far away, some from a combination of raw materials, and some? Some come FROM OUTER SPACE.
