Miami Update, a 35,000 yo Face, and 17th Century Golden Dental Work - Ep 213

On this news show we start with an update on the excavations and controversy surrounding the development of a new set of luxury high-rises in downtown Miami. We then see what the face of a 35,000 year old man from Egypt looks like. Finally, would it hurt to have gold wires woven in and around your teeth to keep them in place? A 17th-century Frenchwoman likely had some opinions about it.

Sacred Pools, Badass Prehistoric Women, and Giant Cave Art - Ep 171

We've got a few articles that are all over the place - literally - this week. The first is about a re-analysis of what was thought was an ancient harbor in Italy. Turns out there's more to it. Next we talk about, well, the prehistoric world in general as it pertains the role of women. As with everything, there's more to that story and it's way more complex than early researchers would have liked. Finally we have a story of massive cave art in a hard-to-access area in Alabama. The figures are massive and would have been difficult to see in their entirety.
