Data Curation…Crisis? Part 2 - ArchaeoTech 215
Recent discussions with colleagues and the February 2024 issue of Advances in Archaeological Practice had Paul thinking about what we do with our digital data. This is an evergreen topic, and one that we've touched on before, but is always good to revisit.

The Megalithic Temples of Malta - Pseudo 143
Malta is an island in the Mediterranean that is super far away from everything else in the Mediterranean. On this island, there are some temples that were made over five thousand years ago by the farmers that lived on the island. They used some pretty big stones to make them. There is also a cave there where they buried some bodies.
I would label this as "super easy to understand." Not everyone feels like I do. Prepare yourself for fake dates, alignments that don't align to anything, and an entire classroom of children that not only disappeared, but never existed in the first place…

Personhood Through the Looking Glass - Trowel 20
After the physical labour of episode 19, Ash and Tilly decide to put their interpretative skills to work in this episode, and discuss how to research a certain magical mirror that has been dropped in their office. To do that, they chat about the history of mirrors, the symbolism of mirrors, and try to work out how exactly you would classify a magical mirror.

The real El Dorado? Muisca gold artefacts and Lake Guatavita – With Dr Marcos Martinón-Torres -Context S2E5
The myth of El Dorado played a significant role in driving the European conquistadors to explore and conquer large parts South America starting in the sixteenth century CE. But did this El Dorado actually exist, and where was it, or better who was it? In this episode of archaeological context, we will cover the source of the El Dorado legend, as it originates from specific rituals performed by the Muisca, indigenous peoples in nowadays Colombia, specifically at a small mountain lake called Guatavita. In addition, Dr Marcos Martinón-Torres, Professor at the University of Cambridge shares results of his research project examining Muisca gold artefacts.
