It’s time to reflect on the highs and lows that 2024 has brought to the world of Pseudoarchaeology. As always, there are not any highs, but the competition to be the lowest of the lows is as fierce as ever!

As the old adage goes, the one constant in life is change. How we react and prepare for change can make the difference in how it impacts our life -negatively or positively. This is part 1 of a 2 part series on how the next US presidential administration may affect the future of archaeology. Part 1 focuses on the academic side of our discipline; part 2 on CRM. Change is inevitable but growth is optional. How will you react?

It’s time for part two of Ash and Tilly’s discussion with archaeologist and jewellery historian Dr Sigrid van Roode all about magical amulets. In this episode, the three look at the archaeological evidence for magic, and how exactly you go about studying ancient jewellery. But how much can we really interpret when it comes to magic? And is it just a relic of the past, or is it still around today?

In this episode of the Great Plains Archaeology Podcast, host Carlton Shield Chief Gover examines the Early Archaic period, a transformative era in the history of the Great Plains. Marked by significant climatic shifts following the end of the Ice Age, this period saw dramatic adaptations in human lifeways. Carlton delves into how these environmental changes influenced hunting strategies, as communities shifted from targeting megafauna to a broader range of game and plant resources. The episode also explores the intensification of space modification, with evidence of advanced land-use strategies emerging during this time. Join us as we uncover how early peoples navigated the evolving landscapes of the Plains and developed innovative solutions to sustain their communities. Whether you're intrigued by climate history, early human ingenuity, or the archaeology of adaptation, this episode sheds light on a pivotal chapter in the Plains’ deep past.

This podcast delves into the peculiar claims made by the show Ancient Aliens regarding the Viking Age. Swedish archaeologist Fredrik and Norwegian archaeologist Steffen Bakk critically examine the episode that suggests Vikings may have had extraterrestrial influences, questioning the validity of such assertions. They highlight the absurdity of claims like Odin’s ravens being spy drones and the possibility of aliens crafting Viking weapons. The discussion tackles the issue of how ancient cultures are often infantilized and misrepresented, reducing complex societies to simplistic and fantastical narratives. Throughout their conversation, they emphasize the importance of grounded archaeological evidence over sensationalist interpretations, underscoring that ancient peoples could achieve remarkable achievements without invoking aliens.
