Homo Erectus, Neanderthal and Roman Food! - TAS 197

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! Members and non-members can sign in or sign up to hear it here!

In this episode, Carlton talks with Josh Wolford about his background in anthropology and his work on the relationships between Anishinaabe cosmology and the geologic/climactic events in the upper Great Lakes. Specifically on how they relate, where this fits in anthropology, ethno-geoarchaeology, and how we can look at other Indigenous creation stories for clues to our Paleolithic past.

Peer Review for CRM Reports? It's Happening - CRMArch 252

Peer review is defined as “a process of subjecting an author’s scholarly work, research or ideas to the scrutiny of others who are experts in the same field”. Like the academic world, peer reviews in CRM are intended to ensure high quality research and to improve the quality of reports; they are also intended to ensure proper regulatory application and compliance. However, peer reviews are at times used for nefarious purposes' this is having a negative impact on the effectiveness of the process. Today’s podcast explores how peer reviews are being employed in CRM and what can be done to get back to the original intent.

100th Anniversary, Howard Carter's Discovery Of Tutankhamun's Tomb (4th November 1922) - Flipside 9

The discovery of the Tomb of Pharoah Tutankhamun is one of the most celebrated discoveries in Egyptology and perhaps archaeology in general. This month is a significant anniversary of that discovery and we at The Flipside are privileged to be able to explore this topic with Dr. Daniela Rosenow and Prof. Richard Parkinson, who are both educators at the University of Oxford and custodians/researchers of the Griffith Archive. For those who are not already aware the Griffith Institute Archive is one of the most significant UK-based collections to explore the cultures of Ancient Egypt. In particular the Archive houses the complete excavation records including journals, reports, object cards, drawings and photographs of Howard Carter’s discovery of the tomb of Tutankhamun. Working with these materials Dr. Rosenow and Prof. Parkinson have curated an exhibition entitled Tutankhamun: Excavating the Archive, this provides an exceptional exploration of previously neglected aspects of the Archive and asks questions about how the Archive itself came to be and highlights the absence from the narrative of the Egyptian people. The discussion this month was truly exceptional and insightful and I for one am sure that it will influence my future practice and the way in which I think about archaeology.

Indigenous Archaeology and the Save Heritage Campaign with Ashleigh Thompson - Ruins 132

In this episode, Carlton has a solo interview with Ashleigh Thompson, a Tribal Citizen of the Red Lake Ojibwe and Ph.D. candidate in Anthropology at the University of Arizona. The episode begins with Carlton asking about Ashleigh's background in Anthropology: where she went to school, what degrees she obtained, and how her multidisciplinary background has become advantageous in her work. We then dive into a discussion on Indigenous Archaeology and her experiences as an Indigenous scholar in the discipline of Anthropology. Then we round out the episode on Ashleigh's work with the Save History Campaign - an anti-looting and anti-vandalism campaign designed to educate the public on Cultural Resource protection. From their website, here's a quote: "SaveHistory.Org is a collaborative effort of Tribal organizations, archaeologists, federal and state law enforcement, and countless supporters dedicated to ending the theft and destruction of archaeological resources on Tribal and public lands."

Ancient Apocalypse or Modern Lies? - TAS 195

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!. 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.
