Herodotus with Kathy Charlton - ADHD 12

Following excavation at Weathertop (Amon Sûl), a range of post-excavation analyses was undertaken to better understand the site’s history and use. Archaeobotanical analysis revealed evidence of plant remains, shedding light on past diets and the environment surrounding the tower. Illustrations of key artefacts and features were produced to aid in visual interpretation and documentation. Find processing involved the cleaning, cataloguing, and detailed recording of artefacts, including pottery, tools, and weapons. Additionally, flotation techniques were employed to recover small organic remains, such as seeds and charcoal, offering further insight into the site’s past occupation and use.TLDR: Tilly and Ash discuss the post-excavation analysis of their six week dig on Weathertop!LinksEuropean Association of Archaeologists (EAA), 2025.

In this episode George talks to adhd specialist and psychotherapist Kathy Charlton about the legendary ‘father of history’ Herodotus and the many neurodivergent traits they displayed. Could Herodotus, the historian who delved deep into the cultures they wrote about have been driven by neurodivergent traits such as impulsivity and hyperfocus? Was history their special interest aka stone collecting? Are George and Kathy recklessly retroactively diagnosing ancient people or simply stimulating the debate?

Excavations at Weathertop (Amon Sûl) have uncovered significant evidence of its role as a Númenórean watchtower and the later decline of Arnor. Artefacts including weapons, pottery, and tools reflect the site’s military importance before its destruction by Angmar’s forces. Remains of battle and burnt structures provide insight into the final assault on the tower, while later finds suggest sporadic use by travellers and the Dúnedain. This report examines the site’s stratigraphy and the material culture uncovered, offering a glimpse into the history and symbolic decline of Weathertop as part of Middle-earth’s broader narrative.TLDR: Tilly and Ash excavate the fantastical site of Weathertop as found in Tolkien’s Lord of the Rings.Links/BibliographyBintliff, J., ed., 2012.
