An Intriguing Summer Topic

The Summer I course Eating and Drinking in the Ancient World, taught by Josh Robinson, a CAS lecturer in archaeology, is a survey of the archaeological evidence of the diets of human societies, from earliest humans to the present, with emphasis on the remains of plants, animals, and humans and what they tell us about ancient food and drink.
