La fascinación por los cristales viene de lejos: estudios con chimpancés muestran que también les atraen Los predecesores de los seres humanos modernos coleccionaban cristales sin ningún uso aparente. Un estudio con chimpancés mostró que estos animales se sienten atraídos por su transparencia y forma, lo que revela que esta fascinación tiene raíces evolutivas.

Chimps' love for crystals could help us understand our own ancestors' fascination with these stones Crystals have repeatedly been found at archaeological sites alongside Homo remains. Evidence shows that hominins have been collecting these stones for as long as 780,000 years.

Experiments show that chimpanzees are naturally attracted to crystals, suggesting that early humans may have shared this fascination due to the stones’ unique transparency and geometric shapes.

¿Es la estética un invento humano o una herencia evolutiva? Un estudio con chimpancés en España demuestra que nuestra fascinación por los cristales no nació con las joyas, sino que tiene raíces profundas en un pasado compartido hace más de seis millones de años.

The REAL REASON the Genocide Hasn't Been Stopped (w/ Francesca Albanese) YouTube video by The Chris Hedges YouTube Channel

#Gaza #ProfitsOfWar
Francesca Albanese describes the dark, self-serving reason that no UN member states have stopped the genocide in Gaza — namely, the economy of war, crisis and genocide that fuels the slaughter and fills the pockets of craven private actors.
