Medieval America (Cahokia) with Sarah Baires
North America? Of course you did. We have Dr. Sarah Baires about that, specifically Cahokia - a city of about 20,000 people outside (modern) St. Louis that was bigger than Rome was at the same time.
Guest
Dr. Sarah Baires received her PhD in anthropological archaeology from the University of Illinois, Urbana-Champaign in 2014, and her research focuses on why humans built and populated urban environments. She examines how people living on the peripheries of early cities became socially, culturally, and economically integrated, with particular attention to the Native American city of Cahokia, North America’s largest pre–European contact urban landscape north of Mexico. Her book Cahokia and the North American Worlds is out now. See more at her website.

About Us
American Medieval is a podcast about the Middle Ages, but with an American twist. Each week, joined by expert guests, we’ll explore either some fascinating part of the medieval world, or some way Americans have used this period to help them understand themselves.
After all, if America has never been modern, it’s because we’ve always been slightly medieval.
