Ancient Society & Political Imagination - Adam Green | NSMClips! - APTTI #9
Channel: Non Serviam Media
Date: 2021-05-08

This clip was taken from an All Power To The Imagination episode titled, Killing The Priest-King with Adam Green | APTTI#9 *Egalitarianism in the Indus Valley Civilization* (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oGCidjyuiNc). In this short clip, Green discusses how ancient societies such as the Indus Valley Civilization can act as egalitarian models, and inspire our political imaginations.

In the original episode, Frank interviewed archeologist Adam Green on his article Killing the Priest-King: Egalitarianism in the Indus Valley Civilization. Green explained both of his arguments for why the Indus Valley Civilization was (probably) an egalitarian mass urban commercial society that operated in a bottom-up fashion and had sophisticated sanitation technology.
