The Living Traditions of Rock Art with Dr Joakim Goldhahn - Ep 159

from The Rock Art Podcast · host Host

In this episode, Alan speaks with Dr Joakim Goldhahn about his journey through archaeology and rock art, from Scandinavia to Australia. Together, they explore the cosmology of Scandinavian burials linked to rock art, as well as the living traditions of rock art in Kakadu National Park and the lifeways of Indigenous Australians. Central to the discussion is a reflection on archaeological responsibility: how working outside these cultural traditions requires humility, accountability, and a commitment to building genuine, impactful relationships with Indigenous peoples and communities.TranscriptsFor a rough transcript head over to: https://www.archaeologypodcastnetwork.com/rockart/159LinksDr Joakim Goldhahn’s BiographyIntroduction to Scandinavian Rock ArtKakadu National Park Rock Art‘This is my father’s painting': a first hand account of the creation of the most iconic rock art in Kakadu National ParkContactDr. Alan [email protected].
