On today's episode we discuss conferences, AGAIN. But that's for two reasons. First, we got some great comments from a fan on our Member's Only Slack Team (archpodnet.com/members) that we had to address. Second, the basic model for a conference hasn't changed in nearly a century and we need to fix that.

This week's episode is a listener-sponsored one! Ancient hunter-gatherers are often painted as egalitarian, with all members contributing to the needs of the group. But what does evidence from prehistory say about things like access to nutrition, or care for the sick or injured? Are there cases where some individuals were clearly treated differently from others? How far back can we go to find clues? Stay tuned, sleuths.

In this episode, we are pleased to have both Lana Ruck and Ella Beaudoin back on our show. Ella was on Episode 2 and Lana was on Episode 16. Since Episode 37 Settlers of Cerutti with Dr. Shane Miller and Dr. Jesse Tune was such a hit, we wanted to have Ella and Lana return to the show to talk about some controversial topics within paleoanthropology. Lana and Ella discuss the site Lomekwi, which is an archaeological site in Kenya where ancient stone tools have been discovered dating to 3.3 million years ago, which make them the oldest ever found. They deconstruct the tools, the context of the site, and the dating of the artifacts.

Join us as we have a discussion about the Harry Potter Universe from an Anthropological and Archaeological perspective. The readers and watchers of Harry Potter are expected to believe that a magical world exists both completely separately but in the same space as the "real" world. Naturally, for these two nerds this brings up so many questions about how the two intersect, both currently, historically, and even prehistorically!
