Desert Kite Blueprints, Ancient Dysentery, and Stone Receipts - Ep 220

The Archaeology Podcast Network Feed

On today’s show we have 3 news stories from the Middle East. The first story is about rock art “blueprints” for desert kites in Jordan. Then we move over to Jerusalem where researchers have tested the microbes left behind in ancient toilets and a stone receipt was found on the pilgrimage road between the gates of the city and the temple. We finish up with a short update about the archaeology project in downtown Miami.
