About this listen
Why would an ancient European society deliberately torch its own settlements every few decades?
This episode dives into the mystery of the Cucuteni-Trypillia culture and their “burned house horizon.” From ritualistic symbolism to experimental archaeology with replica homes set on fire, we explore the surprising reasons behind this intentional destruction—and what it reveals about human ingenuity, resilience, and belief systems thousands of years ago.
