When you stop and think about it, archaeologists basically study stuff people left lying around. So how can they study a city that completely disappears every year?

Today on the Best of Our Knowledge, we’ll experience the archaeology of Burning Man.

We’ll also hear how at least one graduating got a socially distant ceremony, and spend an Academic Minute studying the humanities.
