This week, we welcome Visiting Professor of Anthropology Arlen Chase, who specializes in Mesoamerican archeology. Our conversation with Professor Chase ranges from the origins of his love of archeology in general and of Mayan culture in particular to his groundbreaking fieldwork in a site in Belize known as Caracol. He also discusses his trailblazing use of a technology known as LiDAR, which has transformed the field of archeology.
