    12kyo Bird Bone Flutes, 3/4Myo Greek Archaeology, and Ancient Ovens - Ep 223 Jun 25, 2023
    Show notes

    On this week’s news episode we first cover some cool bird bone flutes that were used up to 12,000 years ago as calls for birds of prey. We then go to Greece where the archaeological record has been pushed back a quarter million years to about 700,000 years ago by the presence of stone tools. Finally, we talk about some ancient ovens that were used consistently for over 5000 years by native Americans in northeastern Washington State.

    The Archaeology of Handedness, or, how evolution hates lefties! - Ep 222 Jun 18, 2023
    Show notes

    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.

    Digesta, Roman Burials in Barcelona, and Standing Stones in France - Ep 221 Jun 11, 2023
    Show notes

    This week we have 3 archaeology news articles. First, even more research points to animal digesta playing a crucial role in providing nutrition to prehistoric peoples. Once again, this also challenges the traditional idea that men were the hunters in hunter-gatherer societies. Then we head over to Barcelona were 9 Roman era burials were found below the city streets. And finally, a site with 37 standing stones has been bull dozed to make way for a hardware store in France.

    Amazing New Views of the Titanic, Pompei Revelations, and a Rare Mayan God - Ep 219 May 21, 2023

    We’ve got three stories about pretty well known places or events. The first contains a video and pictures representing over 700,000 images that were stitched together to form the most complete views of the Titanic, ever! We then go to Pompeii to discover that not everyone died as a result of the eruption of Vesuvius. Finally, we head down to Maya country to see a CRM project find a rare sculpture of a Mayan god.

    We saved the drama for, well, YOU this time! We start with an archaeologist that’s trying to build somewhat of an archaeology theme park in Guatemala and the local community isn’t having it. Then we go to Netflix’s latest blunder regarding a show about Cleopatra. Finally, if you find something in England with your metal detector you’d better report it or suffer the consequences.

    This week we have 3 news stories. First we head over to Puerto Rico where new analysis of human remains from a 4,000 year old site is helping redefine what we know about the early inhabitants of the island. Then we look at a 39,600 year old bone from Spain that may be a leather punch board. And finally, the Dry Tortugas National Park has found a lost underwater cemetery off the coast of Florida.

    This week we have three interesting archaeology news stories. First up is the recent (re)discovery of a Roman era fortlet in Scotland. Then we head over to the Grand Canyon where the Glen Canyon dam is having an unanticipated effect on downstream cultural resources. And finally we discus how digesta, or the partially digested vegetation in a large mammal’s digestive tract may have been a food source to prehistoric groups.

    This week we are taking a deep dive into the origins, history and archaeology of wine. We’ll cover the surprising “birthplace” of wine with some of the oldest evidence of wine making we have so far. Then we look at ancient shipwrecks in the Mediterranean and how they contribute to our knowledge of wine trade routes in Rome and Greece. And then finally, the oldest known wine type that is still in production today!
