Bones are not passive structures. A new evolutionary study shows how shifts in locomotion, from life on land to bipedalism, reshaped the molecular systems that let bone sense and adapt to load. #HumanEvolution #BioAnthro #Paleo www.anthropology.net/p/when-bones...

Laughter didn’t start with stand-up comedy. Chimps, bonobos, and even ancient humans cracked up too. Joy is in our bones—and maybe our guts. #PaleoPost #BioAnthro #HumanOrigins #WOPA #AncientJoy
Before writing, our earliest humans used simple sounds & gestures to connect. The first words sparked bonds and built communities—planting the seed for stories that still shape us today. #LanguageOrigins #WOPA #PaleoPost #HumanOrigins #BioAnthro
Your body hair is a fossilized feature—passed down from ancestors who needed warmth, awareness, and maybe a little flair. It’s not just fluff; it’s evolution in action. #HairyHistory #PaleoPost #HumanOrigins #WOPA #BioAnthro #EvolutionIsCool
The first Biological Anthropologists Starter Pack has reached its limit! I've created a second starter pack. Let me know if you'd like to be added! 🧬📚 #BioAnthro #Anthro go.bsky.app/DMNUzHV
I'm planning my 2025 line up. Anyone know any kick-ass biological anthropologists that I should get in touch with? Are you a totally rad biological anthropologist yourself that wants a platform to talk about your research? Slide on into my DMs 👀

There was this TikTok arguing that every “mom” (could/should be expanded to any person who decorates their home) had an *animal* —> I scoffed “not me!!” —-> looks around at the primates in every room #onbrand #bioanthro
