Sphinx Thinks
Sphinx Thinks is the human and natural history podcast, decoding humanity through archaeology, anthropology, and environment.
From our evolutionary origins to the ancient civilisations and innovations that got us where we are today, we'll explore the timeline of our deep past.
I'll be interviewing leading researchers and specialists, to uncover how bones, stones, and the environmental record reveal where we came from, how we lived, and how the world around us shaped everything from our diet and health to our culture and civilisations.

Professor Cameron Petrie is professor of South Asian and Iranian Archaeology at the University of Cambridge. We discuss his journey to becoming an archaeologist, and finding his field, as well as his present work in the region.
In the Indus region, we discuss the relationship between the settlers in the past and how they interacted with their environment - as well as what this means for the future of sustainable research.
