Our forgotten history: North America once featured thousands of pyramids

This week, we're taking a week off from politics with a special episode looking at the history of North America that European colonizers took great pains to obscure--a continent populated by sophisticated civilizations that were largely wiped out by disease and war. We're joined by Dr. Edwin Barnhart, Director of the Maya Exploration Center and host of the ArchaeoEd podcast, for his insights about ancient North American societies whose archeological artifacts dot modern America.
