Hey Mr Wyman! First time commenter, who discovered your podcast around Thanksgiving. I just wanted to say “thank you” to you and the team for putting it together and to say that it’s an absolutely top tier podcast.
Your story telling, and accompanying blog to do follow ups, are absolutely amazing; especially the intros. I follow along on my mind thanks to that.
I hope your week is going great. I just wanted to chime in to give you and your team y’all’s roses while y’all can smell them. Take care and thank you again! Listening to past episodes as I type this 🤙🏾 Respect, all the way from the Carolinas
Hi Patrick, this is fantastic. So is your argument that those herder values around the treatment of the body were able to seep into a farming/centralized/bureaucracy society because of the speed of the transition? In other words, if the transition had taken 1000 years then those values may have slowly been discarded across that time span. But since it was only a couple of hundred years those values took root in the next iteration of society in a unique way. Do I have that about right? If not, what am I missing?

Fascinating article-thanks!!! 👍
There's a much better rendering of your map of Egypt that you can actually read on the wikipedia page: https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/c/cf/Faiyum_oasis.svg that they have on the pre-historic Egypt page: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Prehistoric_Egypt
I haven't listened to the episode yet but look forward to it.
Hey Patrick, I’m sure you’re following this cool stuff about Stonehenge, but just in case... https://www.theguardian.com/uk-news/2021/feb/12/dramatic-discovery-links-stonehenge-to-its-original-site-in-wales?CMP=Share_iOSApp_Other
Finally a book! Just preordered. Can’t wait to binge-read it.
