    Welcome to Çatalhöyük, Population ? Or, Does Size Matter, Neolithic Edition
    Jul 22 2024

    Today we’re talking about research suggesting Çatalhöyük was way less populous than once thought, like, hundreds and not thousands of people.

    Jun 24 2024

    A new collection of radiocarbon dates from Jerusalem has clarified the westward expansion of the city in the Iron Age and helped archaeologists overcome the Hallstadt Plateau. You know, that dull and listless part of the radiocarbon curve? So why are we arguing so much? It’s a regular three ring circus, but with a shoutout to the real king of Jerusalem, B.B. King!
