Not badhistory, just wanted to share this. I really like this short video on Poverty Point in Louisiana. It's basically a short run down on architectural energetics without getting into too much detail on the rates of work. I've read stuff by Kidder and his work is good. He's got a great article with Sherwood on Mississippian mound construction called "The DaVincis of Dirt". I never knew how sophisticated Mississippian mounds were before I read this article.

This other thing I wanted to share is the recent issue of SAA Archaeological Record. It's all about video games and archaeology. Since I love both, this is really great to see other academics taking a look at games beyond the simple entertainment factor.

Speaking of games, I bought Witcher 3 on Black Friday. I've never played Witcher 3 and so far it's pretty good.
