In this episode of Digital Hammurabi, host Megan Lewis welcomes Dr. Amanda Podany, a renowned expert in ancient history, particularly focusing on Assyria and Mesopotamia during the Middle and Late Bronze Age. Together, they delve into the challenges of uncovering the lives of non-elite individuals in the ancient past, a topic Dr. Podany explores in her acclaimed book, "Weavers, Scribes and Kings: A New History of the Ancient Near East." Dr. Podany discusses how many historical sources have been predominantly created by or for the wealthy ruling classes, yet emphasizes that it is indeed possible to gain insights into the experiences of everyday people. Tune in for an engaging conversation that bridges scholarly insights with accessible discussions on ancient history.
