Episode 14 - Brainy Archaeology
Manage episode 421333596 series 3571334
Archaeology News
Given some ongoing projects, we'll be on a reduced output for the next few weeks, but I did still want to update on some fun news.
1) Preserved brains! Not normally something you'd expect to find in the archaeological record, but there are thousands of brains preserved, some as old as 12,000 years. We're not 100% sure how, but these brains can serve as a valuable resource for understanding neurodegenerative disorders and human evolution.
2) Incredibly detail-oriented experimental archaeology project to test Greek Mycenaean era armor with the help of some long-suffering Greek marines.
3) Establishing ancient human presence in Saudi Arabia's lava caves at Umm Jirsan
4) An update on the mega treasure ship the San Jose
