Listen to me yap about how archaeologists use architecture and urban design to think about governance, how we might interpret our own federal architecture, some findings about democracy’s origins, and a few hopeful thoughts about democracies around the world! www.sciencefriday.com/segments/wha...
✅ Accepted! Coming soon to an issue of Scientific Reports, stay tuned! #archaeology #ecology 🦪 📏 w/ @isazooarch.bsky.social
Huge thanks to @amphilsociety.bsky.social and their absolutely critical support for early career researchers!

Archaeologists can use the design of ancient temples, plazas, and cities to piece together the story of how a place was governed.
How do we know which ancient societies were democracies? A new study is using architecture to find out.

🔬🏺We have an Anthropology Day alumni event coming up, and our development team made these great templates for us to showcase our labs. Had a lot of fun distilling the key contributions of the SAHND Lab here at Penn State! #archaeology #ecology #history
