We discussed the Amazons in classical mythology. We also discussed how warrior women are found in many cultures and even the archaeological record. This got us talking about gender roles and we quickly got to why they scared the ancient Greeks so much, and the patriarchy in general.
Drs. Charlotte Trinquet & Beni Balak with guest Salvio Illiano and Jesse Valez at the controls.
