This fortnight we’re joined by Dr. Matt Betts, the Curator of Eastern Archaeology at the Canadian Museum of History and the former head of the Canadian Archaeology Association’s Climate Change Committee to talk about some of the climate threats to the terrestrial and underwater archaeological record. Matt discusses the analytical challenges and inequalities introduced by climate change’s effects on the archaeological record, and calls for a renewed commitment to culture history.

Fer Shore [Dinner]
This fortnight we’re bringing you an episode about a podcast. The HIS 399 class at the University of New England, under the tutelage of Eric Zuelow (historian) and Arthur Anderson (archaeologist), recently produced “Falling By The Wayside,” a documentary-style podcast about some buildings at the University of New England campus that were almost lost to history. Arthur and Eric, along with Peyton Stevens, Marissa Carter, and Kai Watkins will tell you about the process of producing the podcast, about the challenges and joys of merging archaeology with history, and a little bit about Biddeford at the turn of the 20th century. Tune in to hear about it, and then check out their podcast.Show Notes & Hit Piece:Falling by the Wayside Podcast: sites.une.edu/unepast/Dr. Eric Zuelow, Dr. Arthur Anderson, Marissa Carter, Peyton Stevens, Kai WatkinsCreditsSponsors: APANB, ULeth Faculty of Arts & ScienceProducer: Emanuel Akel LinkedIn
