Three lost civilizations, six hours, one long quiet night.
Drift off to the complete histories of three civilizations that rose and vanished across the ancient Americas: The Aztecs and Teotihuacan, the city whose builders remain unknown; the Ancient Maya and their city-states, writing, and astronomy; and Cahokia, the Mississippian mound city that was larger than London at its height.
This compilation combines three full-length Sleepless History episodes into a single overnight listen, narrated slowly over gentle ambient sound.
Sleepless History is an educational sleep podcast covering lost civilizations, ancient empires, and world history made to help you fall asleep.
