Welcome to the podcast of the Archaeo Book Club, an online community for lovers of archaeology and books! The book club was started back in 2022 as a way to explore how archaeology is depicted in fiction and popular non-fiction. Every month, we pick a different archaeology-related theme, and our book club members vote on a book to read for that theme. Each “field notes” episode, book club admins Tilly, Judith, and Ash discuss the latest theme and talk about its archaeological background, and make their own suggestions for further reading in each “book worms” episode. This podcast is for anyone who loves to explore the past, and loves to read!
