Peopling the Past Podcast is BACK for a fourth season on a very exciting topic: Cultural Heritage and Legacies of Colonialism.

Join your hosts Dr. Chelsea Gardner and Dr. Melissa Funke with special guest Dr. Christine Johnston for an introduction to SEASON FOUR of the Peopling the Past podcast!

This season is slightly different from our previous three seasons, because we’re shifting our focus for these episodes to the theme from ancient people to modern issues with cultural heritage and legacies of colonialism. So, listeners, you can expect to hear from world-class scholars about ongoing inequities and issues facing the fields of archaeology, museum studies, and Mediterranean history today. Topics include everything from museum collections, descendent communities, identity, looting, forgery, water and resource management, the field of "Classics", the antiquities trade and social media, local labour, knowledge production, and how modern people from across the globe engage with the ancient world.
