These walls span a large distance and range of time and some are contemporaneous with the Great Wall. Gideon talks about the tech they used to map and analyze the miles of walls they've found and what's next for them.

    Using Lidar to Analyze Chacoan Road Profiles - Ep 208

    Using Lidar to Analyze Chacoan Road Profiles - Ep 208

    We're talking about Chacoan road networks again! A few years ago we interviewed Sean Field. He was doing research on the road networks coming into and out of Chaco Canyon. Sean Field is at it again with another paper but this time he's using Lidar to analyze road profiles. It's an innovative technique and Chris and Paul discuss it on this week's show.
