Since 2011 the Syrian civil war, with armed confrontations between regime and various opposition forces, led to a traumatic process that has strained the ethnic and social fabric of the country. Much of Syria lies in ruins, and also its archaeological heritage has been a major casualty of the conflict, especially regarding the deliberate destruction and systematic looting of antiquities by forces of the so-called Islamic State terror organization. I had the pleasure to discuss some of the intricate details of these actions with Dr Amr Al-Azm on this episode of archaeological context.

Are you looking towards the UK as you consider graduate schools in archaeology?  This week, Doug gives us a rundown on how the system "over there" works, and we compare it to the US system.  Even though both countries speak English, many words mean different things when the systems collide - you have been warned!

In this episode, we will cover the recent debate between Dr. Flint Dibble from Cardiff University and Graham Hancock on the Joe Rogan Podcast. The first part of the show will be a sort of answer to Flint Dibble's article in Sapiens. In the second part of the episode, I'm joined by Professor Howard Williams, also known as Archaeodeath on TikTok [https://www.tiktok.com/@archaeodeath] and YouTube [https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCRD7gIrwOmLN_D4_0RbLtSA]. We will discuss our thoughts on the debate and what was good and bad.

Religion permeates most cultures around the world and throughout time. How did early people represent and practice their religions with respect to rock art? What did they represent with the images and what stories were they trying to tell? Dr. Garfinkel discusses some of his research and study on this topic for today's episode.

Archaeology is always seen as a field pursuit and for the most part, it is. However the interpretations of archaeology should be accessible to all. Our guests today, Dr. Alessandro Sebastiani and Dr. Laura Morabito presented their thoughts on accessibility in archaeology at the World Archaeology Summit in Alula, Saudi Arabia in September 2023. They discuss things like 3D reconstruction and VR as tools to bring people to archaeological sites and research without physically bringing them there.
