The Great Wall of China

Kelli, along with Anna and Paul of the Engineering History Podcast, do another joint episode on the Great Wall of China! Join us as we tackle how and why the Great Wall was built, starting with the Qin Dynasty and then tracing it through the Ming Dynasty. While Kelli muses on the legitimacy of dead bodies in the walls, Anna explores the engineering of sticky rice and Paul enthuses about the Mongols and the reasons for wall building in the first place.
