    Show notes

    We’re in Lake Havasu City, AZ this week so naturally we’re talking about the London Bridge! Did you know that one of the three stone versions of the bridge to exist in the last 1500 years is here in Arizona? We talk about this history of the bridge and what led to this version being moved to an Arizona tourist town that was literally built around it.

    Show notes

    This week we have 3 interesting archaeology news stories! First up, after a 2 year hiatus, underwater excavations of the HMS Erebus have resumed with some amazing new findings. Next, we head over to Scandinavia where genetic studies of the ancient remains tell a new story about the movement of people in and out of the area in the Viking era.

    Homo Erectus, Neanderthal and Roman Food! - Ep 197 Dec 11, 2022
    Show notes

    This week we happened to find 3 news stories about evidence for eating and cooking food in the ancient world. First up is the first evidence of Homo Erectus cooking fish 780,000 years ago. Then, we fast forward to 70,000 years ago and leftover evidence of a Neanderthal meal gives us insight into how they prepared food. And finally, in Rome new excavations under the coliseum reveal the kind of snacks that spectators would have enjoyed.

    For our members, we have a bonus segment describing how one journalist attempted to recreate the Neanderthal meal that we discussed in segment 2!

    Don't Watch NBC's 'La Brea' if you want to retain brain cells - Ep 196 Dec 04, 2022

    This is just a short episode because it was a busy week for us. However, I had time to watch a few episodes of the catastrophe of historical inaccuracies known as “La Brea”. It’s a show on NBC and it’s really bad! Chris rants on it for one segment.

    Ancient Apocalypse or Modern Lies? - Ep 195 Nov 27, 2022
    Show notes

    CORRECTION: Graham Hancock wrote Fingerprints of the Gods NOT Chariots of the Gods which was written by Erich von Däniken. Our apologies for mixing up the two titles! The latest archaeological injustice from Graham Hancock is in the form of a brand new, and popular, Netflix series called Ancient Apocalypse. We talk about the eight-episode series, what we liked and what we didn't. Is Graham Hancock right? Is there evidence of an ancient civilization that lived during the last ice age that some how didn't make it through the ice age but did have time to reboot civilization in the people that were left? We'll see.
