Are you prepared for either? On this episode we talk about preparing for the winter. Should you work? Do you have to? How much money do you need to live? And much more.

More Parts of Cladh Hallan - Dirt 210

Truly we are talking ancient history, since “Cladh Hallan: A Story in Several Parts” was episode 18, way back in 2018 when we still had no idea what we were doing and long before the content that was migrated to the APN feed. This may be the first time some longtime listeners (including you?) have heard this story, and we’ll round it out with some additional context for the subject matter. Find out what we sounded like before Anna really got the hang of sound editing!

Archaic Humans, Ancient Board Games, and Powerful Viking Women - TAS 191

And finally, a discussion about the recent Scientific American cover story "The Power of Viking Women."

The Cerutti Mastadon Site - Pseudo 102

The 130,000-year-old Cerutti Mastadon site in San Diego is a place where you can definitely find mastodons, but were people there at the same time? It sure doesn’t look like it.

The New Science of Archaeoecology - TAS 190

On this episode Dr. Stefani Crabtree and Dr. Jennifer Dunne join us to discuss their recent paper on the new field of Archaeoecology. While it is often acknowledged that there is an overlap between the fields of archaeology and ecology, it has not been defined as a separate area of study until now. The study of Archaeoecology aims to show not only how humans impact nature, but also how the ecosystems they lived within shaped human culture and dynamics.

**Coprolites were recovered nearby in Paisley Cave. Luther Cressman recovered sagebrush sandals from Fort Rock Cave, but noted that Paisley Cave was likely "one of the most important sites for Early [humans] in the whole West" where the coprolites were later recovered by Dennis Jenkins and his team.

Oldest Mound Site in North America? with Dr. Shane Miller and Dr. Jesse Tune - Ruins 126

On this episode of the podcast, Connor and David sit down and chat with veteran guests Drs. Jesse Tune and Shane Miller to discuss the recent LSE mounds paper.

They first dive into how Jesse and Shane have been on the show multiple times, and that they always have an educated and constructive conversation. Beginning with an overview of Southeastern archaeology and mound history, they then dive into the mounds. The hosts and guests discuss how the paper was published by geologists in a journal that isn’t known for archaeology. They also discuss how the dating and geology in the paper is a little odd.

The Dirt Dries Out - Dirt 207

There have been an awful lot of news stories lately featuring “lost” sites or structures “revealed” by the effects of drought and climate change. Way to look on the positive side, I guess! We’ll take a look at some of these sites and more broadly, the effects of climate change on current archaeology. Both of your tired hosts were a bit punchy during recording, so this episode is ever so slightly goofy despite the gravity of the topic. But we hope you enjoy it!

The Piri Reis Map - Pseudo 101

This is the map that proves that ancient civilizations with technologies far beyond our own were able to visit Antarctica back when it was warm there. Wait, are you saying you don’t believe me? Well good for you! This map doesn’t do any of that stuff. It’s still pretty cool on its own though.

Experimental Archaeology - TAS 188

In the subfield of experimental archaeology, researchers use historic and pre-historic methods and materials to recreate different artifacts and items in the archaeological record. By doing this we learn how peoples of the past made the things we find during excavation, which adds to the context of the life people lived at that particular time period. This week we discuss 3 examples of experimental archaeology in the news including the boomerang as a multi-use tool, how large pots were created in Crete, and the reinterpretation of an artifact found at Sutton Hoo.
