A conversation with Elizabeth Dospěl Williams (Dumbarton Oaks, Museum Department) on how people in Byzantium experienced the materiality of the objects they used, especially jewelry and textiles. We look at some of those objects together, discuss their qualities, and situate our engagement with material culture in broader discussions of historical theory. You can see the objects that we discuss for yourself, including this earring and ring pair; a St. Demetrios reliquary; a child's tunic; and a garment with a clavus. The conversation is based partly on Betsy's study 'Appealing to the Senses: Experiencing Adornment in the Early Medieval Eastern Mediterranean,' in the volume Sensory Reflections: Traces of Experience in Medieval Artifacts (Berlin 2019) 77-96; and the textile exhibition Woven Interiors: Furnishing Early Medieval Egypt (The George Washington University Museum and The Textile Museum, 2019).
<p>Professor David Wengrow is one of the world's leading experts on Egypt before the pharaohs.

Σε αυτό το επεισόδιο και με αφορμή την ταινία «The Dig» (Netflix) συζητάμε και ανακαλύπτουμε τους λόγους ύπαρξης σκευών βυζαντινής προέλευσης στην Αγγλία και συγκεκριμένα τον τύμβο ενός Σάξωνα βασιλιά στο Sutton Hoo. Στο προσκήνιο υπάρχουν αρκετές θεωρίες τόσο για την ταυτότητα της σωρού όσο και τους λόγους ύπαρξης αυτών των σκευών σε ένα φαινομενικά απίθανο μέρος. _____________ Το άρθρο στο οποίο στηρίχθηκε η συζήτηση είναι του Michael D. J. Bintley, The byzantine silver bowls in the Sutton Hoo ship burial and tree-worship in Anglo - Saxon England.

A conversation with Alexander Sarantis (Römisch-Germanisches Zentralmuseum Mainz) on the socio-economic impact of raiding on the lives of provincials as well as the military history of the empire and its finances. Who were these raiders? What did they want? How did provincials and the empire as a whole respond to them? A fear of marauders probably doesn't keep you up at night today, but this was a major anxiety in Byzantine life. The conversation is based on Alexander's study 'The Socio-Economic Impact of Raiding on the Eastern and Balkan Borderlands of the Eastern Roman Empire, 502-602,' Millennium 17 (2020) 203-264.
<p>Understanding the first migrants to the Americas more than 13,000 years ago is a big task. So is figuring out how the ancestors of indigenous peoples transformed themselves from hunters of mammoth and mastodon to farmers to the builders of complex societies.
