The oldest synagogue, Civil War soldiers, and Poseidon's Revenge - Ep 231

View on Zencastr

We’ve got a news episode this week and three great articles. First up is possibly the world’s oldest synagogue outside of Israel. However, not everyone believes it. Then we’ve got an article about some civil war soldiers that we know a lot more about now. Finally, what happens when you worship a god of the sea and it all goes wrong? The Greek city of Helike has an idea about that from 2,600 years ago.

Deconstructing the Stone, Bronze, and Iron Ages - Ep 230

View on Zencastr

We mention there is a YouTube video of this episode. Well, that was before we tried to edit it. There was a big error that couldn’t be overcome in the processing of the video. So, you don’t get to see Chris’ ugly face and Rachel’s face-for-video…maybe next week!

Lately it seems like every archaeology news article we read references the Stone, Bronze or Iron Age as a hook in the headline. We were curious, where does this come from, and is it valid to continue using it today? Join us for a deep dive on the origins of the Three Part Age system, whether it still holds up, or if it is an idea that just doesn’t apply to our current understanding of the ancient world.
