Lost City in Luxor, LiDAR in Tikal and Harriet Tubman's Father's Home - Ep 120

This week, on the archaeology show, we take a look at a couple new(ish) discoveries that have been in the news this week. First, an extremely well preserved city in Luxor Egypt has been discovered and dated to the reign of Amenhotep III. Next, LiDAR helps researchers discover a new monument in Tikal that appears to be influenced by the people of Teotihuacan, the future conquerers of Tikal. And finally, archaeologists in Maryland believe they have found the home of Ben Ross, Harriet Tubman's father.
