IN HIS MAJESTY'S SECRET SERVICE
The relationship between archaeology and espionage is close. During the twentieth century, for example, both Britain and the United States recruited archaeologists working in some of the world's most sensitive locales as spies. Beginning in 1911, T. E. Lawrence excavated the Hittite site of Carchemish on the Euphrates River, from where he could keep an eye on the Germans, who were constructing a railway supply line between Baghdad and Berlin.

In defense of sticker shock
There are faster ways to start an online fight, but not many. Say “$10,000 DAC” and watch audio-forum commenters descend like pigeons on a dropped hot dog, flapping and furious. They’ll tell you the designers are crooks, the buyers are dupes, and anyone not DIY-ing with AliExpress kits is a poseur.

Doing it for themselves—and for us
Women have undeniably become the most dynamic and vital creative force in music today. Without their good energies and ideas, music, which in the digital age has become more background than art, would be much less interesting and inspiring.
