Fortune and Glory: An Archaeology Podcast

Science EN ↓ 8 episodes

Archaeology is a window into our past. Our fortune is knowledge, and our glory is a new perspective on the world and people around us. It isn’t always exotic travel and mystic lost cities. It’s more often than not just about people and the places that they called home. Join archaeology student Mason Hansen as he discusses news in archaeology, both of true science and pseudo. He’ll also take you through the wonders of the field and why he cherished it so much. Either way, we’ll find plenty of fortune and glory along the way.
