The Progeny of Boas - Ep 142

On this episode of A Life in Ruins Podcast, we delve into the post-Boas anthropological theorists. We begin with an overview of four of Boas’s most well known students: Margaret Mead, Ruth Benedict, Edward Sapir and Alfred Kroeber. We then just focus on the history of archaeological theory beginning with the Culture Historical approach, New Archaeology, and the Post-Processual Critique.

A History of North American Archaeology - Ep 140

We are back! All three cohosts return and start a new series of episodes on everyone’s favorite topic: Archaeology Theory! Before we delve into the theory, we start off by talking about feedback we have received from listeners about how we can improve our podcast. After we address that, we take a deep dive into a history of North American archaeological/anthropological thought and practice. This podcast is a little heavy but worth your listen!
