  • PROMO - BREAKING NEWS - Monte Verde is no longer a pre-Clovis site, with Dr. Todd Surovell - Ethno 33

    PROMO - BREAKING NEWS - Monte Verde is no longer a pre-Clovis site, with Dr. Todd Surovell - Ethno 33
    Mar 24 2026

    For decades, Monte Verde in southern Chile has been one of the most famous archaeological sites in the Americas. The site was widely accepted as 14,500 years old, making it one of the strongest pieces of evidence for human presence in the Americas before Clovis.

    But what if that interpretation was wrong?

    In this special episode, I sit down with Dr. Todd Surovell, professor of anthropology at the University of Wyoming, to discuss new research that re-examines Monte Verde using modern geoarchaeological methods. The results suggest that the famous site may actually be much younger than previously believed, dating to the Holocene rather than the Ice Age.

    If true, this would mean that Monte Verde is not evidence for pre-Clovis humans in South America, and it could force archaeologists to reconsider one of the most influential discoveries in American archaeology.

    We discuss:

    • The history of the Monte Verde discovery
    • Why it reshaped textbooks in the 1990s
    • How new geological and dating analyses challenge the original interpretation
    • What this means for Clovis-first vs. pre-Clovis models
    • Why independent verification and skepticism are essential in science
    • This episode explores how science evolves—and how even the most famous discoveries can be re-examined.

  • Digging Deep with Norma Gregory, African Diaspora Industrial Heritage Historian - Ep 104

    Digging Deep with Norma Gregory, African Diaspora Industrial Heritage Historian - Ep 104
    Feb 17 2026
    On this month’s episode, Jessica speaks with Dr. Norma Gregory (founder and director of Nottingham News Centre) about her efforts to document and educate the public on the industrial heritage history of the African diaspora. Dr. Gregory’s work to develop her book on Jamaicans in Nottingham led her to shift her life work to making sure that Black coal mining history got the attention that it deserved. We talk about some of her different efforts to promote this history as well as how all of us can do better public education in our own work. We also talk about her work for the Windrush museum, on Nottingham Carnival heritage, as well as her future dream vision for continuing this work.LinksDr Norma Gregory & Black Miners’ HeritageBlack Miners Museum ArchiveNorma Gregory – WebsiteNorma Gregory – ProfileNorma Gregory BBC article ‘History Project on Black Miners comes to South Wales’Norma Gregory BBC Article ‘Nottinghamshire Black Miners’ History Project Launched’Norma Gregory BBC Article Wales Black Miners programme (archived)Nottingham News CentreJamaicans in Nottingham : Narratives and Reflections (Book by Dr. Norma Gregory) (to purchase signed copies email: info@blackcoalminers.com)Industrial Heritage & ArchaeologyThe Association for Industrial Archaeology UKThe International Committee for the Conservation of the Industrial HeritageNational Coal Mining Museum, Yorkshire UKInternational Council of Museums (ICOM)The Association for Heritage InterpretationWindrush Scandal UKWindrush Scandal – Timeline of events, The Guardian NewspaperOffice of the Windrush CommissionerNorma Gregory Windrush article, The Nottingham PostThe National Windrush Museum UKFurther LinksThe Nottingham CarnivalNational Lottery Heritage FundGlobal Action Planhttps://www.greenpeace.org.uk/TranscriptFor a rough transcript of this episode head over to: https://www.archaeologypodcastnetwork.com/heritagevoices/104ContactJessicaJessica@livingheritageanthropology.org@livingheritageAArchPodNetAPN Website: https://www.archpodnet.comAPN on Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/archpodnetAPN on Twitter: https://www.twitter.com/archpodnetAPN on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/archpodnetTee Public StoreAffiliatesMotion Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

  • Chatting with Aaron Brien - Ep 103

    Chatting with Aaron Brien - Ep 103
    Jan 20 2026

    On this month’s episode, Jessica checks back in with Aaron Brien (Apsáalooke), who you may remember from Episode 23 on Salish-Kootenai College’s Tribal Historic Preservation Program, Episode 25 on Technology, and episode 41 on Collecting Oral Histories in Indian Country. In the more than 5 years since our last recording, Aaron has moved from being Tribal Historic Preservation Program faculty at Salish-Kootenai College to being the Crow Tribal Historic Preservation Officer. We talk about how that transition happened, the process of reinventing the Crow THPO program, and how the SKC program prepared him for being a THPO. On that note, the podcast Aaron and Dr. Shandin Pete started right before we recorded episode 41 is now called the Tribal Research Specialist podcast and is still going strong! Finally, the third segment focuses on the work the Crow THPO is doing and ongoing challenges as a THPO. We close out by discussing how the second Trump administration affects the work of a THPO and what we should all be doing to support THPOs and the resources they fight for.
