Cannibalism in Neolithic Atapuerca? 💀🔬
Our latest study reveals clear evidence of a new cannibalistic event among farming communities at El Mirador cave. A fascinating glimpse into prehistoric life... and death. www.nature.com/articles/s41...

⚠️ Una vértebra infantil hallada en Gran Dolina muestra cortes precisos que indican decapitación. El hallazgo refuerza la hipótesis de que Homo antecessor practicaba el canibalismo de forma recurrente @fatapuerca.bsky.social @iphes-cerca.bsky.social

Canibalismo hace 18 ka en cueva de Maszycka, Polonia. Posible selección de cráneos en el marco de enfrentamientos intergrupales, causados por la competencia por los recursos.
New insights of cultural cannibalism amongst Magdalenian groups at Maszycka Cave, Poland
We are happy to share our pre-print on dating bone using a novel non-destructive protocol we developed. The paper is on the Biorxiv here (Luftensteiner et al. 2025):

A close-up photograph of an flint dagger with a chipped, gray stone blade and a weathered wooden handle. The blade is knapped to a sharp point with visible flake scars, while the handle appears aged, the black birch tar, that was used to fasten the blade to the handle, can be seen.
This uniquely preserved Late Neolithic flint dagger (2900 BCE) was found in Allensbach at the Lake Constance, southwest #Germany. The blade was made of flint from Monte Baldo, northern #Italy. It was fastened with birch tar in a handle made of elderwood.
