Dig into our summer session episode on archaeology in the interwar period with Dr. Helene Maloigne, an archaeologist and historian at University College London. Our talk centers on the work of Leonard Woolley and includes discussion of T.E. Lawrence, Gertrude Bell, Agatha Christie, the excavation of the tomb of King Tutankhamun in 1922, and the discovery of Sutton Hoo in 1938 (featured in the Netflix film The Dig) as well as the work of Katherine Woolley, Sheikh Hamoudi, and the impact of interwar archaeology on popular culture and archaeological practices today.
