Friends and colleagues: You can see two unique features in the July 2015 edition of Strata: Portraits of Humanity, available online and on TV:
 
* The region surrounding Turkey’s Sea of Marmara, including the storied capitol city, Istanbul, is renowned for its visible reminders of antiquity.  This is an archaeological and historical wonderland that draws visitors from all over the world. 
 
* Across the islands of Fiji, hilltop fortresses tell a tale of a warfare and cannibalism going back a thousand years, when the war gods demanded tribute or revenge.  Yet people have been on these islands far longer and things have not always been the same.
 
Unlike any other show available anywhere, Strata is a fresh monthly showcase for unique, captivating and diverse stories about our cultural heritage from an archaeological perspective.  We have a preview athttp://youtu.be/i-Qax3md9LU.   Check it out!
 
You can see this monthly half-hour show on our nonprofit streaming-media Web site, The Archaeology Channel (http://www.archaeologychannel.org) as well as on cable TV in cities across the US.  Strata program details can be found at http://www.archaeologychannel.org/video-guide/strata-portraits-of-humanity.  The growing list of cable TV stations carrying the show is available at http://www.archaeologychannel.org/video-guide/strata-portraits-of-humanity/184-additional-articles/1963-strata-portraits-of-humanity-on-cable-tv.  They include placement in the local on-demand menu of Comcast Cable in Oregon, Washington, Idaho, and now California.
