Ancient Ear Surgery, Roman Mosaics, and the Oldest Pants EVER! - TAS 161

We've got FOUR news articles for you today. The first is about the oldest ear surgery that took place over 5,000 years ago. She lived! For a little while anyway. Then we go to London where one of the best Roman mosaics to be found in the last century was uncovered. They had all the best things! Finally (sort of) we go to China and look at the oldest pants, or trousers, ever found. We have a fourth article about a new rock art dating technique but that's in our bonus content for members of the APN. If you're not a member head over to https://www.archpodnet.com/members for more info. Interested in learning about how to use X-Rays and similar technology in archaeology?
