This week's episode we discuss the site of Monte Verde in southern Chile and some recent controversy surrounding the site's dating. We also talk about the brutal Atacama Desert and how this environment led the fishers moving through the region to develop several forms of mummification throughout their long history in the region. For this season that covers natural mummification as well as the black mummy method.The Science article about Monte Verde in Chile: https://www.science.org/doi/10.1126/science.adw9217?utm_campaign=ScienceMagazine&utm_medium=ownedSocial&utm_source=twitterTwitter/X: https://x.com/WarAdRevPodYouTube: https://youtu.be/_bvrhkJ2ql0

The Las Vegas Culture
This week I correct a terrible omission I made last week and focus on the Las Vegas Culture of Ecuador. This covers their transition from semi sedentary hunter-gatherer-fishers to incipient agriculture. As well as their development of communal burial and feasting. I also cover the tale of the Lovers of Sumpa. A tale some attribute to the Las Vegas Culture. YouTube: https://youtu.be/xyeXmtaHAU8X/Twitter: https://x.com/WarAdRevPod

This is not going to be a straightforward documentation of kings fighting and destroying each other, though there will be many mentions and examples of that. This will attempt to explain our subjects from the ground up. The common foot soldiers to the leaders at their head. Their strategies, tactics, weapons, and technologies. Their triumphs and tragedies. Their lives and their deaths. What they fought for and why. What motivated them. What drove them.
