Ethics and remote sensing in archaeology - Ep 161

When you fly your drone over a landscape or use satellite images in your research, do you ever thing about the people that live on and use the land that you're studying? Because of the scale of the images you might not be able to see actual people, but they're there. In a recent paper, Dylan Davis and Tanambelo Rasolondrainy, two of the authors and our guests today, explore the ethics of remote sensing and collaboration with stakeholders.

Geophysical Surveys in Ohio with Dr. Jarrod Burks - Ep 160

Dr. Jarrod Burks of Ohio Valley Archaeology, Inc joins us on the show today to talk about his pioneering geophysical work in Ohio. Dr. Jarrod Burks specializes in geophysically detecting the unseen archaeological record that surrounds us. He is also president of Heartland Earthworks Conservancy, an organization that works to study and save Ohio earthworks. Dr. Burks’ day job takes him all over the country, and beyond, to survey archaeology sites, cemeteries, and even look for lost WWII soldiers. Back home, he fell in love with Ohio’s Woodland period mounds and earthwork sites more than 25 years ago when he moved to Columbus to pursue his doctorate in Hopewell settlement research at The Ohio State University. He now spends a good amount of time each year surveying earthworks, retracing the footsteps of the 19th century mappers and travelers…as well as discovering previously undocumented sites.
