Khufu's pyramid scheme - Aliens 52

This time, we are going to look at the top 10 pyramids of the world according to Ancient Aliens. I could not tell if the list is based on how significant evidence the pyramids are for extraterrestrial visitation or how cool they are. The episode would also become too long if we did the whole list simultaneously, so this will be a two-parter. You could also view it as a compilation episode of some great pyramids and one farm structure. We will spend most of our time in Mesoamerica and visit Peru and Greece. I think you'll really love this episode; we will even have a case where the Ancient Astronaut believers cite their sources, a real Christmas miracle here.

In this episode:

  • El Castillo

  • Teotihuacan

  • Sican Pyramids of Peru

  • El Mirador

  • Pyramid of Hellinikon

  • Guest appearance from Dr Matilda Siebrecht from "Tea-Break Time Travel" and "My Trowel."

Homo Naledi and the Cave of Bones Controversy - TAS 246

This week we tackle one of our favorite topics - controversy! Last summer, the team working on the Rising Star Cave site in South Africa released a series of pre-prints making some incredible claims about the pre-human species, Homo Naledi. They were closely followed by the Netflix documentary, Cave of Bones which captured the attention of the public. However, other researchers are pushing back, claiming lack of solid evidence and published peer reviewed research. Join us while we look at both sides of the debate, and let us know where you land!

Kon-Tiki! - Pseudo 131

When I was a kid, I loved the story of Thor Heyerdahl and the Kon-Tiki.

Join me as we skewer my inner child and put the Kon-Tiki to the test!

On Monday the 27th of November, 2023 we invited four Zooarchaeologists from the University of Sheffield’s Department of Archaeology to talk about the work they are doing towards their PHD and Post PHD studies.

Even though this was a relaxed pre-Christmas event, they were given just 15 minutes each and the time was strictly enforced!

The event was held in the upstairs room at The Red Deer Pitt Street Sheffield which is the spiritual home of Sheffield Archaeology.

Our speakers were:

Dr Maeve Moorcroft - What is in the Box? : Rediscovering a unique pathological bone collection.

Ewan Chipping - Cowology: Anatomy, Morphology and More.

Tracy Platts - What else did the Romans do for us?

Marina Chorro-Giner - I Like Turtles: Archaeology, Turtles and why they are Awesome!
