This week, postdoctoral scholar Laura Heath-Stout joins Chris for a conversation about her upcoming book Identity, Oppression, and Diversity in Archaeology. They explore how the lack of diversity in the field of archaeology has influenced our perception of ancient history, and how this can and should change.

The Arkhaois Film Festival is a free annual event that takes place every fall. It highlights the work of film makers working in the anthropology and archaeology space. This year the Archaeology Podcast Network participated in the jury selection process and we interviewed a few of the film makers. In this episode you’ll hear from Andrew Jones of Curiosity Trek and Alessio Consorte of The Last Shop, two of the short films that were selected.

This week we take a closer look at three archaeology news articles. In Norway, an archaeology rescue program is finding and recovering archaeological remains when they are exposed to air by glacial melt. Some of the artifacts are incredibly well preserved examples of organic material that normally doesn't survive the archaeological record. Then we head over to the United States and take a look at a new evidence at a paleolithic hunting camp in Michigan, where researchers have found evidence of what animals they were processing with the store tools. And finally, a medieval grave of a child in Poland appears to have been buried with extreme anti-vampire measures.
