This is a crossover episode with Chris Webster and <a href="https://www.archaeologypodcastnetwork.com/archaeology">The Archaeology Show</a>!Recently, evidence of twisted cord was discovered on a Neanderthal archaeological site. While the exact use of this cord is unknown, we discuss our theories for how Neanderthals could have applied this technology to everyday life. Most importantly, this discovery contributes to breaking down the myth that Neanderthals were technologically inferior to their human contemporaries.Links<ul>

New evidence for Neolithic textiles in the Orkney Islands - Ep 103

Hosts Rachel Roden and Heather Boyd bring you a unique podcast organized by seasons. In each season you'll learn about yarn or pattern styles from around the world: where did they come from? What's the history? Then you'll be able to grab the pattern for a custom design based on the topic from either Rachel or Heather. Each episode's first half discusses history and the second half discusses the pattern.
