To celebrate Halloween, the Podcast on Germany takes a look at human sacrifice among the Early Germans.  In this episode we discuss the written sources and bodies that have been found related to the German sacrifices. Do you think that slaves and prisoners of war are sacrificed or kings?  Have you heard about the bog bodies of northern Europe? Join in on this episode and find out.  Feel free to join us on www.facebook.com/podcastongermany!

We discuss when the Early Germans arrive in Germany and the issues that we run into.  Then we talk about where everyone would want to live on, a Wurt! These Wurts provided the foundation for German early settlements and introduce us to German society in this episode.

Rather than start on Early Germans we take this episode to look at archaeology and its advantages and negative effects on our studies.  We look at what you use, how it works in our modern day, and what exactly is pre-written history.

We build Germany that would have been found by the early tribes.  We discuss the land, the vegetation, and the animals.
