Creationism! - Pseudo 193

Let’s go old school today and talk creationism! The idea that not only did god make the world, but that it should be taught in biology class alongside evolution!

On this month’s episode, Jessica speaks with Pauline Knudsen (Assistant Professor in the Department of Cultural and Social History at the Institute of Culture, Language and History at Ilisimatusarfik- the University of Greenland). The two discuss Pauline’s journey from being fascinated during a museum visit to working in museums as a curator to ultimately becoming an archaeologist. Pauline explains the context of doing archaeological work as a professional in Greenland and how climate change affects the archaeological features themselves. She also provides several examples of different ways her projects have centered the interests of local communities and incorporated local Indigenous knowledge into archaeological interpretation, including how oral history, archaeology, anthropology, and historical research came together to tell the story of a hunter from the eighteenth century who has been viewed as either a murderer or a hero depending on the storyteller and time period. Lastly, Jessica and Pauline discuss an Antiquity article that Pauline co-authored that showed the greater navigational sophistication and heavier integration of Early Paleo-Inuit people into the environment than previously understood in a region of Greenland that is still difficult to access today.    LinksHeritage Voices on the APNAntiquity Article: Walls, Matthew & Kleist, Mari & Knudsen, Pauline.

Head-Smashed-In Buffalo Jump, a UNESCO World Heritage Site in southern Alberta, is the best-known buffalo jump on the Great Plains. Used for nearly 6,000 years—and perhaps longer—the site enabled Blackfoot people to harvest millions of pounds of bison meat, hides, bones, and other resources. In Episode 52, Chris and Carlton speak with Drs. Shawn Bubel and Kevin McGeough of the University of Lethbridge about their recent Plains Anthropologist article on this keystone site in Blackfoot culture. Part 1 introduces the history of Head-Smashed-In and buffalo jumps more broadly, explaining how these hunts worked and the immense scale of the operations. This foundation sets up Part 2, which explores why Head-Smashed-In was far more than a “meat factory”: it also preserved generations of Blackfoot wealth, knowledge, and culture.Article Citation:Shawn Bubel and Kevin McGeough (04 Jun 2026) Head-Smashed-In Buffalo Jump: The Durative Power of Keystone Institutions and Embedded Knowledge.

This week we are back to the news with three recent archaeology stories! First up, we discuss a National Geographic report on Turkey’s rapidly shrinking lakes, noting that receding water is exposing submerged archaeological sites like the Basilica of St. Neophytos in Lake Iznik while creating preservation and excavation challenges. We then critique a BBC Science Focus story that compares a mile-long stone alignment in Lake Michigan to Stonehenge. Archaeologists actuallysay that hunting drive lines are plausible explanations, and that simplified claims about lake history and age are misleading. And finally, we review an IFLScience article debunking more claims that Noah’s Ark was found in the Urartu region, emphasizing that the Durupinar formation is widely regarded as a geological feature.LinksSegment 1The Treasures Emerging From Turkey’s Dying LakesSegment 2A secret Stonehenge under Lake Michigan is baffling archaeologistsArchaeologists Have Found Prehistoric Rock Structures Under the Great Lakes.

On this episode we ventured out into the real world and shelled out the equivalent of a down payment on a small car to see The End of Oak Street (2026) in theatres. And guess what? Feathered dinosaurs! We’re so thrilled about that that we let some of the minor things slide, like the outdated JP3-style Spinosaurus... and the shaggy sauropods... and the mix of Triassic, Jurassic, Cretaceous, and even Pleistocene taxa... But we have to draw the line at Ewan McGregor’s American accent.LinksDinopedia’s list of dinosaursRiley Black’s list of dinosaurs on SlateScreenrant’s list of DinosaursCBC’s guide to dino sexBlue Smarties were introduced in 1988Blue M&Ms were introduced in 1995Blue Froot Loops were introduced in 1996Canadian/UK Smarties vs. American SmartiesSpinosaur Tales (2026) by Dave Hone and Mark WittonDinosaur milk – Quirks and quarksSplit diopter shotContactWebsiteBlueskyFacebookLetterboxdEmailArchPodNetAPN Website: https://www.archpodnet.comAPN on Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/archpodnetAPN on Twitter: https://www.twitter.com/archpodnetAPN on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/archpodnetAPN StoreAffiliatesMotion Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.
