There’s a new edition of Four Stone Hearth live at Afarensis. He’s done a great job with it, and he’s found plenty that I’ve missed.

Also, while I’m pointing at things, Michael E Smith has a thoughtful post on agency and the problems that happen when archaeologists try talking about it. I’ve found often agent is a synonym of individual. Someone else I know suggested soul. It might sound woolly, but a lot of talk about agency is, because people don’t often define what sort of agency they’re talking about. Smith’s post shows another sort, from the political sciences, which clearly could be have applications in archaeology.
