We’re wrapping up "Ancient Brews" with a taste of South American traditions: chocolate drinks made from cacao and fermented chicha corn beer! Both were central to cultures across Central and South America, so what can archaeology tell us about their meaning and use?

Next time, we dig into "Finders Keepers: A Tale of Archaeological Plunder and Obsession". Reviews are mixed… so come see what we uncover!

*Help us out!*
