Y'all, I've been waiting for this one a long time! I've wanted to have an archaeobotanist on with me since the show started, and was lucky enough to find 3! Dr. Alan Farahani and his undergraduate researchers, Lydia Wolfe and Carlos Romo-Caballero make up the Farahani Lab of Archaeobotany at the University of Nevada, Las Vegas and study the archaeological remains of ancient agriculture and what those remains mean anthropologically. They were the PERFECT guests to wrap up year 1 of Planthropology and I hope you love this episode as much as I did!
