Ep 79Not All Heroes Wear Capes: Countering Human Remains Trafficking - Dirt 79

This week, Anna and Amber are joined by Dr. Damien Huffer, a bioarchaeologist and crime fighter. Dr. Huffer’s work was featured way, way back in Episode 36, “The Unsettling Business of Curating Human Remains,” and Anna and Amber are keen to learn more. How does one get into this line of work? What makes people want to own parts of other people? What’s being done to stop trafficking, and what lies ahead?Links The Bonetrade Project Alliance to Counter Crime Online Bringing Them Home: The Repatriation of Priceless Human Remains and Artifacts to Cambodia (SAFE: Saving Antiquities for Everyone) Fighting trade in human remains antiquities (Saturday Paper) This Archaeologist Uses Instagram To Track The Human Skeleton Trade (Forbes) The Insta-Dead: The rhetoric of the human remains trade on Instagram (Internet Archaeology) The Dirt Episode 36: The Unsettling Business of Curating Human Remains ContactEmail the Dirt PodcastAffiliates Wildnote TeePublic Timeular Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

Ep 255The Modern Myth of Foreign Policy with Dylan Burns - Modern Myth - Episode 8

This is a very special episode of Modern Myth. We are talking all about foreign policy, what it is, how it affects our lives and why it is important that we are open about it. In this episode I talk to the youngest foreign policy advisor in the United States of America, Dylan Burns about foreign policy and its connection to heritage and history. We discuss modern conflicts and the relations between countries as well as what it means for repatriation in the future. Also at the end of the discussion because this was livestreamed with Dylan, I answered some of the questions given to me in the chat.

Ep 16Our Ruined Lives with Lana Ruck - Ruins 16

Today’s podcast hostage is Lana...Lana...Lanaaaaaaa Ruck. Lana is a dual Ph.D. Candidate in the Department of Anthropology and Cognitive Science Program at Indiana University, Bloomington. She works at Olduvai Gorge as a student researcher at the Stone Age Institute, and she is an avid science communicator through IU's science blog, ScIU (@sciublog).Lana is a proud Texan, and got her B.A. in Anthropology at Texas Tech University and her M.A. at Florida Atlantic University. She has worked in Ecuador, Nicaragua, and Tanzania, focusing on stone tool technologies and toolmaking techniques. Lana is an interdisciplinary scientist and self-described "stone age neuroscientist."Her research combines brain imaging techniques with experimental archaeology to explore how our uniquely-human system of technology, language, and cognition evolved. Unfortunately, Lana allowed Carlton to be one of her participants for her dissertation research, and we are very excited to spill the tea on how that disaster went.

Ep 122The Problem of Archaeological Data with Dr. Peter McKeague - ArchaeoTech 122

Every year archaeologists create a wealth of data through fieldwork and research that is essential to our understanding and interpretation of the past. Despite the geographic character of much of that record, we consistently fail to realise its potential. Site plans and detailed survey data are routinely locked into the pages of PDF reports. As a result plans fossilised in print cannot easily be reused alongside other datasets to improve our understanding of the past. There is often no consistency in how mapped data can be combined across projects to map the archaeological landscape. We need to wake up to opportunities digital transformation presents us as archaeologists in presenting our data to a wide audience. Dr. Peter McKeague joins us to talk about this problem.Links Towards a Sustainable Future for Digital Spatial Information and Technologies in European Archaeological Heritage Management Why the Historic Environment needs a Spatial Data Infrastructure, Internet Archaeology 43 Saving European archaeology from the Digital Dark Ages: SEADDA RAMP project Past Map App of the Day Webby: Clean Up The Lake - On Instagram RV Trader Paul: Binaural (iOS, Mac) Contact Chris Webster Twitter: @archeowebby Email: [email protected] Paul Zimmerman Twitter: @lugal Email: [email protected] Affiliates Wildnote TeePublic Timeular Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

In this episode of A Life in Ruins Podcast, the hosts have the honor of speaking with Dr. David A. Anderson of Radford University. Dr. Anderson is not only an accomplished Mesoamerican archaeologist, but also famous as a Scicomm writer and has a large twitter following. As you'll find out, Carlton used to study under Dr. Anderson and was a major influence on his career. It seems that he has grown past his days of youtube anthropology raps. David Ian Howe asks interesting questions regarding Dr. Anderson's research, while Connor self-deprecates about the host's collective status as "failed mayanists." However, the conversation ends on a poignant note regarding the culture of academia as well as science communication to the public.
