NEWS: Climate Models, Non-Kosher Ancient Judeans, and Coins - Ep 125

We have three articles for you today. The first is about current climate models and how they don't take archaeological information into consideration. For example, how many acres of food were grown per person in 1500 Europe verses China? Next we look at why pig and fish remains were in abundance in some ancient Judean settlements? Weren't they supposed to be Kosher? Finally, a paper that's still just an abstract suggests that coin makers in ancient Greece and Rome found it hard to make bronze dies.
