A Roman Fortlet, Grand Canyon Resources, and Redefining Prehistoric Gender Roles - Ep 216

View on Zencastr

This week we have three interesting archaeology news stories. First up is the recent (re)discovery of a Roman era fortlet in Scotland. Then we head over to the Grand Canyon where the Glen Canyon dam is having an unanticipated effect on downstream cultural resources. And finally we discus how digesta, or the partially digested vegetation in a large mammal’s digestive tract may have been a food source to prehistoric groups.
