Ep 75ArchaeoAcoustics With Steve Waller [Encore] - Rock Art 75

Steve Waller is an expert in the study of ArchaeoAcoustics. ArchaeoAcoustics is the study of sound in the prehistoric environment. Mr. Waller got his start in the caves of France while pursuing a passion for rock art study. One idea that Mr. Waller pursued was the idea that rock art was actually inspired by sound - specifically the sound in a cave. What Mr. Waller found was that the acoustic impacts of a location on rock art happen more often than anyone could have suspected.Interested in learning about how to use X-Rays and similar technology in archaeology?

Ep 177Studying Salvage Anthropology w/ Samuel Redman - Dirt 177

We dive into Dr. Samuel Redman’s latest book, Prophets and Ghosts: The Story of Salvage Anthropology. Amber and Anna (mostly Amber) have lots of questions about the seemingly paradoxical 19th- and 20th- century urge by American scholars to “rescue” objects and even human remains from “disappearing” Indigenous groups. It’s a fascinating window into anthropology viewed as a moral and academic obligation, and the social underpinnings of the development of the discipline in the US. And!

Ep 175Sanxingdui and the Shu State - Dirt 175

This week, we explore yet another place that’s not a backwater or influenced by aliens! In 1986, two pits were excavated at the site of Sanxingdui (Three Stars Mound) in what is today China’s Sichuan province. These two pits, and six more uncovered in 2021, were full of bronze, jade, gold, and ivory objects that appear to have been “sacrificed” (burned or broken) before burial. The artifacts were made in a style never before seen in Chinese material culture. What was going on at Sanxingdui, and why was the site abruptly abandoned thousands of years ago? We can tell you right off the bat that it wasn’t aliens, but you’ll have to listen to the episode to find out more!

Ep 157Timelines: 79 CE in Pompeii, Teotihuacán, and Aksum - TAS 157

Everyone knows that the eruption of Mount Vesuvius in 79 CE buried the Roman town of Pompeii in volcanic ash, abruptly ending its time as a flourishing port city on the Bay of Napes. But, what what else was happening in the ancient world at the same time? In this Timelines episode, we begin by chatting about Pompeii and it's unfortunate demise in segment one. Then we move over to Central America, where Teotihuacán is entering its monumental architecture building phase at the same time. And finally, in segment three we look at the Kingdom of Aksum, which was growing into a thriving trade town on the route between Rome, the middle east and India. These three very similar, yet very different stories were taking place at the same time of approximately 79 CE around the world!Interested in learning about how to use X-Rays and similar technology in archaeology?
