In this episode, Dr. Benjamin Irvine (former BIAA Postdoctoral fellow and now Assistant Professor at Bilkent University) discusses his research on bones and what bones can tell us about how people lived in the past. The conversation takes surprising and fascinating turns drawing on irregular burials, dietary habits and whether bones can tell us about instances of murder. Dr. Irvine also makes a case for how archaeologists can be useful in crime investigations.
