So cool! Sundaland's sea level variations likely played a role in Pleistocene hominin dispersal, isolation and diversity in SE Asia 🌏. It was about time we found hominins in the submerged shelf! So much fossil evidence may still lurk underwater! 🦴🦷💀🪨

Excellent point! I don't think we have evidence of hair combing or grooming in #Neanderthals but we do have evidence of personal ornaments. They suggest an esthetical or ritual dimension, thus it is possible that personal grooming was present among Neanderthals. #PaleoAnth people, am I wrong?

Neanderthals boiled bones in ‘fat factories’ to enrich their lean diet Germany digs reveal a large-scale operation 100,000 years earlier than oldest known fat rendering by modern humans.

A glimpse into Neanderthals' diet, technology, culture and their relationship with their environment! New evidence suggests that #Neanderthals knew how to extract fat from bones 🦴 around 125k years ago!

We don't talk about this enough but the history of #PaleoAnth has "colonial overtones" - to put it lightly! Chapeau to all efforts to decolonise #HumanEvolution 👏

A small fossil skull with ape-like features including a protruding face, wide nose and small brain case, sitting in a black background. The front half (the face) is coloured light brown where the bone remains, the back half is dark brown where the rest of the skull has been lost and is now only made up of a natural earthen endocast of the brain cavity

#OnThisDay in 1925 Raymond Dart announced the discovery of this fossil, a new species he named A. africanus. Known as the Taung Child, it is arguably the most important #paleoanth fossil of the 20th C and kick-started the modern discipline

And just like that, I have successfully completed my first semester of #gradschool! 🎉🪨🦴 So, #Paleoanth & #Paleoarch bluesky, I’m curious — is there anything you wish you had known at this point in your career? I feel like I have learned so much already, but still have so far to go!

Are any #BioAnthsky / #Anthrosky folks writing about how the changing landscapes of #anthropology training, funding, & career paths will affect #BioAnth theory & knowledge production in the future?

#NewPaper on encephalisation 🧠 suggests brain size increased over time WITHIN several hominin species, while the trend observed ACROSS species is likely the effect of increased body size! This shines a new light on our evolution!
