ArchaeoAcoustics With Steve Waller [Encore] - Ep 75

Steve Waller is an expert in the study of ArchaeoAcoustics. ArchaeoAcoustics is the study of sound in the prehistoric environment. Mr. Waller got his start in the caves of France while pursuing a passion for rock art study. One idea that Mr. Waller pursued was the idea that rock art was actually inspired by sound - specifically the sound in a cave. What Mr. Waller found was that the acoustic impacts of a location on rock art happen more often than anyone could have suspected.
