Key Insights:

* There is a perspective from which “today” means “post-Ordovician”

* Catul-Huyuk as 900 families living cheek-by-jowl, and after 1500 years… people leave…

* Angkor’s uniquely vulnerable water reservoirs… and eventually… people leave…

* Cahokia’s sophisticated organization of labor… but eventually… people leave…

* Pompeii… well, we know why people flee all-of-a-sudden…

* Cities are magical places, but not always, and not forever…

* Cities suffer from abandonment when an overdetermined disaster hits a sclerotic system: you can deal with politics, you can deal with climate change by themselves, but…

* Question: Will Detroit or Miami or Houston be the next “lost city” in the U.S.?

* Hexapodia!
