This week was packed full of interesting archaeology news stories, so join us\nfor a discussion about the 3 that caught our eye! First up is a story about\nusing x-ray microtomography to virtually unfold historical letters. Then, in\nsegment 2 we cover a story about a burial site in Spain that indicates that the\nsocial and political rulers of the culture may have been women. Finally, we\ndiscuss an innovative new approach to studying Bogota's prehistoric irrigation\nsystem.\nLinks\n * Unlocking history through automated virtual unfolding of sealed documents\n imaged by X-ray microtomography\n [https://www.nature.com/articles/s41467-021-21326-w]\n * Emblems and spaces of power during the Argaric Bronze Age at La Almoloya,\n Murcia\n [https://www.cambridge.org/core/journals/antiquity/article/emblems-and-spaces-of-power-during-the-argaric-bronze-age-at-la-almoloya-murcia/B27A3C7AD23625DD39C6D4F2C3981C2F]\n * Ancient woman may have been powerful European leader, 4,000-year-old treasure\n suggests\n [https://www.nationalgeographic.com/history/article/ancient-woman-powerful-european-leader-4000-year-old-treasure-suggests]\n * El Argar [https://www.britannica.com/topic/El-Argar]\n * Aerial Photographs Uncover Bogot\xe1's Indigenous Hydraulic System\n [https://eos.org/articles/aerial-photographs-uncover-bogotas-indigenous-hydraulic-system]\n * Roadster Adventures\n [https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC7B6D7bzybjPrQjeiUmF0hw]\n\nContact\n * Chris Webster\n * chris@archaeologypodcastnetwork.com\n * @archpodnet (Instagram and Twitter)\n\nPlease Visit Our Sponsors!\n * Archaeology Southwest Cafe:\n https://www.archaeologysouthwest.org/things-to-do/cafe/\n\nAffiliates\n * Wildnote [http://www.wildnoteapp.com/]\n * TeePublic [https://www.teepublic.com/?ref_id=5724&ref_type=aff]\n * Timeular [https://timeular.com/ref/chriswebster/]
