Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Archaeology of Holyrood Park
Q: What would you say to someone who is thinking of a career in archaeology?
It's a field you should absolutely pursue if you're drawn to it; there are jobs in archaeology and it's a vibrant, dynamic subject that's integral to planning, landscape management, and understanding our past.
Witches of Dirleton Castle
Q: What exactly makes a witch, and how did that definition influence trials in Dirleton?
Scholarly and local perspectives distinguish between folk ideas of witchcraft and the elite, demonic conception that tied witchcraft to a pact with the devil; this shifting backdrop helped justify persecution and shaped confessions.
