FinallyFriday Episode 1: History in Bite-Size Chunks

Guests: Maeve L’Estrange (IE) and Farrell Monaco (US) In this episode of The EXARC Show our host Matilda Siebrecht moderates a discussion about the bitter challenges and tasty triumphs of the archaeology of food – specifically bread – in different archaeological contexts. The discussion touches on the variable nature of the archaeological and historical record, class divisions in food consumption, the practice and practicalities of doing experimental archaeology, as well as the sensorial benefits of this approach. As always, #FinallyFriday starts with a conversation between our guests and wraps up with questions from participants in the EXARC Discord. More information here: #EXARC #ExperimentalArchaeology
