Episode 36 - Top 10 Archaeological Discoveries of 2024 (Pt.1) + Bergen Site Visit
In this episode, Jason breaks down his version of the Top 10 Archaeological Discoveries of 2024 (the first 5 anyway!). Among these:
1) Lost cities in the Amazon
2) Oldest cave art ever discovered confirmed in Indonesia
3) Neanderthal-human mixing
4) Newly recognized geoglyphs in Peru
5) Reindeer hunting wall
We also take a site visit to Bergen, founded by the early Norwegian kingdom in 1070 - the late Viking era - but it came into prominence as one of the kontors of the Hanseatic League. Bergen is chock full of archaeology - but also food, outdoor action and modern amusements.
