Timelines - Egypt, Peru and China: 2600-2500 BCE - Ep 114

For the last few months we’ve been talking about a new type of episode and here’s the first one: welcome to Timelines. This idea is all about taking an anchor event or time period that pretty much everyone has heard about and then looking at what was happening in other parts of the world at the same time. The idea is that sometimes these big anchor events can overshadow other really important things. Our first episode has the building of the pyramids at Giza in Egypt as the anchor. We also talk about what’s happening in Peru and China at the same time.

New evidence for Neolithic textiles in the Orkney Islands - Ep 103

Recently, new evidence for Neolithic fabric was found impressed on a sherd in the Orkney Islands. In an area where the environment is not conducive to preservation of textile, archaeologists must look for evidence in unconventional ways. Recently, a team from The University of the Highlands and the Islands in Scotland used Reflectance Transformation Imaging (RTI) to identify the impression of woven fabric on a sherd. Chris and Rachel discuss the fabric impression, how it could have been made, and what the broader implication are of this discovery.
