Finding Medieval Walls in Mongolia with Gideon Shelach-Lavi - Ep 209

We have an interesting interview today with Gideon Shelach-Lavi. He’s part of a team that is researching walls in Mongolia. These walls span a large distance and range of time and some are contemporaneous with the Great Wall. Gideon talks about the tech they used to map and analyze the miles of walls they’ve found and what’s next for them.TranscriptsFor rough transcripts of this episode go to https://www.archpodnet.com/archaeotech/209Links Gideon Shelach-Lavi, surveys, including use of aerial imagery, to find medieval walls on the Mongolian steppes https://www.cambridge.org/core/journals/antiquity/article/medieval-longwall-construction-on-the-mongolian-steppe-during-the-eleventh-to-thirteenth-centuries-ad/69850626FA671DD5A8454DD63EC31CFD “The Wall” project website: https://thewall.huji.ac.il Gideon’s Academia.edu profile: https://huji.academia.edu/GideonShelachLaviContact Chris Webster Twitter: @archeowebby Email: [email protected] Paul Zimmerman Twitter: @lugal Email: [email protected] APN Website: https://www.archpodnet.com APN on Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/archpodnet APN on Twitter: https://www.twitter.com/archpodnet APN on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/archpodnet Tee Public Store: https://www.teepublic.com/stores/archaeology-podcast-network?ref_id=5724AffiliatesMotion: https://www.archpodnet.com/motionMotley Fool Save $110 off the full list price of Stock Advisor for your first year, go to https://zen.ai/apnfool and start your investing journey today! *$110 discount off of $199 per year list price.
