We back. We talk cool medieval hillforts with Roman technology, and the passing of a medieval historian everyone should know about (and read). 



Guest

About Us

American Medieval is a podcast about the Middle Ages, but with an American twist. Each week, joined by expert guests, we’ll explore either some fascinating part of the medieval world, or some way Americans have used this period to help them understand themselves. 


After all, if America has never been modern, it’s because we’ve always been slightly medieval.
