Land, Sky, Home podcast series: A breathtaking archaeological tour: Sky

In this special podcast trilogy, archaeologist and Thames & Hudson author David Miles takes us on an immersive tour of the cromlechs and tombs near his home in France, to explore three themes from the past that shape the preoccupations of our present. Each recorded in a different season, episodes Land, Sky, and Home reflect David Miles’s deep knowledge of archaeology and the natural world, suffused with birdsong and sounds from the landscapes of the Cévennes. Here in the second episode, Sky, David encounters a shepherd and a tomb to explore the impact of the heavens on prehistoric social arrangements—and how our modern relationship with the sky needs mending.
