In this issue
Visit an ancient church cemetery in France that was used for hundreds of years and which shows the connection people have to place in life—and death. Read about America’s First Revolution (it’s not the one you think). Discover an underground settlement in Turkey’s extraordinary Cappadocia region and imagine how people might have lived and worshipped there for centuries. Learn about an eccentric 19th-century entrepreneur and his grand ideas for turning Philadelphia’s glassworks into his own industrial empire.

In these stories—and so many more—this issue of Archaeology brings the past
