Discover the stories behind these everyday objects, whether modern or thousands of years old, and start seeing material culture through the eyes of an archaeologist.

Closing song Nantucket Girl's by The Tossers from their album Purgatory 2003
"Then I'll haste to wed a sailor and send him off to sea For a life of independence is the pleasant life for me But every now and then I would like to see his face For it always seems to me to beam with a manly grace With his brow so nobly open and his dark and kindly eye Oh my heart beats fondly towards him whenever he is nigh But when he says goodbye me love I'm off across the sea First I cry for his departure then I laugh because I'm free" -- Eliza Brock, 18th Century Nantucket Islander

Customer Reviews
Good stuff!!
Love the content! As a maker I love hearing the science/history side of object to person relationships. Would love to hear indigenous voices on the show!
New favorite!
I came across this podcast after a ceramicist they interviewed posted about it. As an object maker myself, I’m very interested in material culture and oh man was I blown away by how great this podcast is!!! There’s a perfect balance of theory behind material culture and what objects mean to us (in so many ways) through good conversation and some laughs too! They do an excellent job making these subjects relatable to our daily lives and there’s something very important to take from every episode.
Super interesting and fun podcast!
I always learn something new. And the music selection is on point!
