Experimental Archaeology at Butser Ancient Farm with Trevor Creighton - Ruins 103

On this special 4 segment episode of A Life in Ruins Podcast, we are lucky to be joined Trevor Creighton, a project archaeologist at Butser Ancient Farm.

Butser Ancient Farm is a not-for-profit Community Interest Company with a focus on education and research, located just north of Portsmouth in the UK. They have a series of buildings at the farm, which are constructed based on evidence from archaeological excavations. They test theories about the technologies, building techniques and ways of life of ancient people by reconstructing parts of their homes and lives. They have constructed buildings from the Stone Age, the Bronze Age, the Iron Age, the Roman period in Britain and a house from the Anglo-Saxon era.

Trevor explained his very interesting journey from doing Radiography to getting an M.A. in Visual Arts and eventually getting an M.A. in Archaeology from the University of Leicester. He then delves into the history of Butser Ancient Farm, what they do and what time periods are represented. We then discuss more broadly about experimental archaeology and experiential archaeology. We finish off by discussing if their is an equivalent to Butser Farm in North America.

Butser Plus is a way you can view how the folks at Butser Ancient Farm explore the ancient past. Butser Plus contains behind-the-scenes mini documentaries of the farm. Go check it out for a remote way to observe experimental archaeology.

We’re dipping our toes into Roman baths, sweating through Finnish and Russian saunas, discussing the shrewd marketing behind the “Halitosis Effect,” and more. Plus, what even IS soap, anyway?

Talking Dogs, Data, and Mental Health (but mostly dogs) with Dr. Angela Perri - Ruins 101

On this episode of A Life in Ruins Podcast, David and Connor talk to Dr. Angela Perri about her lengthy CV and her academic/professional career. Dr. Perri is currently the top researcher in the world in terms of understanding the relationship between humans and dogs in the ancient world. So clearly, David's ears perked up.

As usual, we first dive into Angela's early life and career in anthropology, and talk about her interesting transition from a Las Vegas bartender and Oregonian undergrad, to being a PhD student in the UK.

We then discuss her time at Durham University and her dissertation research, which took her to Japan, Mongolia, and the American Southeast. We also talk about her time and research at the Max Planck Institute studying dog genomics and DNA. David and Connor also ask Angela multiple questions about dogs, dog domestication, and the human/dog relationship.

We then end on Angela's career advice and have a heart to heart conversation about mental health, Academia, and CRM.

AI Epigraphers, British Kings, and Stone Age Reconstructions - TAS 164

This week we discuss some interesting archaeology news articles. First up is a new algorithm that can read and restore Ancient Greek texts. Second, a researcher claims to have found approximately 65 previously unknown British royal burials. We definitely have a lot of questions about that statement! And finally, a beautiful reconstruction of a Stone Age woman by both artists and archaeologists is on display in Sweden.

ArchaeoAcoustics With Steve Waller [Encore] - Rock Art 75

Steve Waller is an expert in the study of ArchaeoAcoustics. ArchaeoAcoustics is the study of sound in the prehistoric environment. Mr. Waller got his start in the caves of France while pursuing a passion for rock art study. One idea that Mr. Waller pursued was the idea that rock art was actually inspired by sound - specifically the sound in a cave. What Mr. Waller found was that the acoustic impacts of a location on rock art happen more often than anyone could have suspected.

Live Show: The War in Ukraine with Simon Radchenko - Ruins 100

For our first live show and in celebration of our 100th episode, we had originally planned for a dynamic and audience-interactive experience full of bits, challenges, and guest appearances. However, due to the recent invasion of Ukraine by Putin’s Russia, we wanted to use our platform to support the people of Ukraine. We were joined by Simon Radchenko, a Ph.D. candidate in Archaeology at the University of Turin, in Turin Italy. Simon is a Ukrainian archaeologist that first appeared in Episode 34, and joined us live from Italy. *Originally recorded live on March 12th, 2022*

In this episode, we chat with Simon about cultural differences between Ukraine and Russia, the history between the two countries, and his personal story about leaving Kyiv and getting to Italy. During the show, we took live questions from the audience.

Anthropology and Science Fiction with Pat Edwards - Dirt 181

Pat Edwards is an author, game builder, and creator of all kinds of sci-fi and fantasy content. We all sit down and puzzle through some questions about the boundaries between archaeological interpretation and fiction, the use of anthropological tropes in pop culture, and strategies for drawing from the archaeological record for fictional world-building. We had a blast with this unconventional topic, and we hope you enjoy listening!
