Learning about the past.

Watched a movie this morning because I'm too lazy to think, but found a lecture seried on the history of horticulture, not from an archeological or anthropological point of view, but from the point of view from agricultural science.

Since it overlaps the history of the evolution of bronze age civilization (which I'm self studying) I plan to listen to it.

Alas, streaming videos.

One of these days I'll get ambitious and list all the best lectures on the web.

another lecture I'm downloading: science fiction as a literary genre. part one part two
