Anna's Birthday Podcastle - Dirt 127

This episode happens to fall within Anna's birthday week, so Amber has very kindly indulged Anna's childhood love of knights, castles, magic, and adventure. This week, we're exploring Arthurian legend, and some of the...unique legacies it has left behind. We firmly establish that Arthur had TWO different swords. We also confirm that no, Robin Hood was not a Knight of the Round Table. Plus, the Yelp review that made Amber laugh until she cried.

Near Eastern Archaeology with Maria Diget Sletterød - Ruins 46

In this episode, we are pleased to introduce Maria Diget Sletterød, a Danish archaeologist studying the Pre-pottery Neolithic in the Near East at the University of Copenhagen. We start off with a brief introduction as to how the hosts found Maria which was through an Archaeologists in Quarantine episode with Carlton hosted by Tash. Then we delve into her diverse archaeological research and excavation projects and how she has worked all across the Near East and Europe. David and Maria swap stories about visiting/working in Israel. We follow up with a discussion on Maria's thesis work and where the discipline of archaeology fits in the Danish educational system and what exactly is the "Pre-pottery Neolithic". We close the episode out by asking Maria about what it's like to work in the Near East, a region that is known in the American media for being geopolitically tenuous.

Timelines - Egypt, Peru and China: 2600-2500 BCE - TAS 114

For the last few months we’ve been talking about a new type of episode and here’s the first one: welcome to Timelines. This idea is all about taking an anchor event or time period that pretty much everyone has heard about and then looking at what was happening in other parts of the world at the same time. The idea is that sometimes these big anchor events can overshadow other really important things. Our first episode has the building of the pyramids at Giza in Egypt as the anchor. We also talk about what’s happening in Peru and China at the same time.

Barrier Canyon Style Rock Art of Utah with David Sucec - Rock Art 31

David Sucec is Director of the Barrier Canyon Style (BCS) Rock Art of Utah. BCS is one of the more remarkable rock art expressions in North America. It dates from as early as 7,000 to 2,000 years ago and is mainly a polychrome painted style. The patterned expressions adorn the dramatic canyons of the spectacular Utah topography. The images are haunting and consist of very small but many times very large images of decorated and "floating" spirit figures. Sucec has dedicated over 30 years to the proper recording of this world class rock art tradition through detailed photographic imaging. Our discussion will focus on why has Barrier Canyon rock been so evocative and intriguing. We are honored to have Sucec share the story of his odyssey with BCS!

Picture a world where dormice are the size of cats and hyenas roamed around Europe: welcome to the Pleistocene! Upon suggestion from one of our listeners, we explore the time period where zooarchaeology and palaeontology overlap.

The Dirt Caves In: LIVE! - Dirt 126

If you were a pre-Homo sapiens hominin, the place to see and be seen was Africa in what is today colloquially known as the Cradle of Humankind. True to form, we're late to the party, but come along with us anyway for a tour of the cave sites that revolutionized paleoanthropology.

Thank you to everyone who came out to the live show!

Just the Boyz: Emails, Gaming, and Columbus - Ruins 45

We are now uploading video versions of the podcast to our YouTube channel thanks to Zencastr's new video podcast component. You can find the video version of this episode by going to our YouTube Channel "A Life in Ruins"

A Life In Ruins Youtube

In this episode, the guys gather around their mics and webcams to talk about a recent email they received at the beginning of the new year and the impact it had on them. In the second segment, they actually begin to talk about archaeology through a conversation about the PC game Dawn of Man. This leads the guys down a path to talking about how cultural evolution is portrayed in popular gaming and a hypothetical discussion regarding what would the Americas have looked like if Europeans hadn't arrived in the 15th and 16th centuries.

Ancient Beer, Stolen Stonehenge Stones, and an Ancient Chinese City - TAS 113

Welcome to another archaeology news episode! We have three stories to discuss this week. We start with what’s basically an ancient beer factory in Egypt. Then we travel to Stonehenge in England to talk about the origin of the inside circle of stones called the Bluestones. Finally, we look at an ancient Chinese City that archaeologists have spent many years excavation.

We discuss these articles from the perspective of an archaeologist to show how a skeptical and scientific perspective can clear up what journalists think is important about recent discoveries.

DNA: The Dirt, uh, Finds a Way - Dirt 125

This year is the 20th anniversary of the first publication of the Human Genome Project, and the 10th anniversary of the Neanderthal Genome Project. Since both of these projects began, DNA research has changed what we know about the human story more than we could ever possibly have imagined. Come learn about a tiny fraction of this knowledge with us, and listen to our brains explode.

Heritage, Tourism, and Race - HeVo 48

Today’s podcast features returning guest Dr. Antoinette Jackson, Professor Department of Anthropology Chair at the University of South Florida. We go in depth about her new book Heritage, Tourism, and Race: The Other Side of Leisure. This book was written in response to the common question, “Why are there so few minority visitors to National Parks?”. In response, Dr. Jackson challenges mainstream beliefs about leisure and race, as well as highlighting African American active and diverse pursuits of leisure in spite of the legal and social exclusion. We explore the original enslaved African caving history at Mammoth Cave, the Green Book, Black entrepreneurship, and Black beaches during segregation. We close out by discussing how COVID-19 reframes the concepts of space and exclusion for those who have maybe never had to think about it before, as well as where Dr. Jackson sees the Black Lives Matter movement taking the conversations and hopes present within the book.

Stefan Milo 2: This Time It's Personal #Paleolithic - Ruins 43

On this episode of A Life in Ruins podcast, we have a bonfire chat with YouTuber and Neolithic advocate, Stefan Milo. If you’re not familiar with Stefan, we introduced him in Episode 20. Or you may know him from his popular YouTube channel, “Stefan Milo.” We talk about the recent growth of Stefan’s channel and how he has now become the first full-time anthropology YouTuber!

We then quickly get into the Great Paleolithic-Neolithic War of 2020. This began as a meme and took off. It was fun for both our followers to follow and share along with.

We later have a serious discussion about the differences between the two periods and what it means for human history.
