Magazine Description
In this issue
Visit a bustling settlement in the Arabian Desert where a spice trading power reigned some 2,500 years ago. Explore a mountain cabin outside San Diego that has given archaeologists a glimpse into the real life of the charismatic Nathan Harrison, a formerly enslaved man who became the area’s first African American homesteader and a California legend at the turn of the 20th century. Travel with us to the ruined city of Reccopolis in central Spain, where the Visigoths established their kingdom’s new capital in the wake of the Western Roman Empire’s final collapse. And journey to the dense highland forests of Peru and learn how archaeologists are using drone-mounted lasers to map the evolution of an ancient citadel. In these stories—and so many more—this issue of ARCHAEOLOGY brings the past to life.
