Thank you for visiting the Medieval Archives. The Medieval Archives is dedicated to exploring and understanding the Medieval Era. The idea for the site sprang from a lack of medieval podcasts on the internet. I discovered several medieval themed podcasts but the majority of them are months or years old. It is my goal to produce a monthly podcast about the people, places, events and technology of the medieval era.
Why the Middle Ages?
My interest in the Middle Ages started when I was a child. I was enthralled while reading The Hobbit, The Lord of the Rings trilogy and The Shannara trilogy. As much as I enjoyed the fictional worlds, it was the real life kings, queens, knights and castles that fascinated me and my passion continued to grow. I read everything I could find and watched as many documentaries as possible. I spent my college years studying medieval history and received an elegant piece of sheepskin for my time and effort. I continue to learn more about the Middle Ages everyday and never tire of the subject.
