In this episode of Tea-break Time Travel, Matilda chatted with archaeologist Pir Hoebe all about his research looking at flint blade technology. The theme of the episode, as the title suggests, is preparation. How do you prepare a flint nodule to create a flint blade? How do you prepare for your own research into prehistoric technologies? How do you prepare for a PhD? To learn all these things and more, check out the latest episode!
