A 1.8-Million-Year-Old Elephant Butchery Site in Tanzania Rewrites the Timeline of Human Megafaunal Exploitation New spatial and taphonomic evidence from Olduvai Gorge suggests our ancestors were processing giant elephants far earlier — and more systematically — than the fossil record had indicated.

I read a fascinating book about Mary Leakey when I was a postgrad - I think it was called Year Of The Ghost. It was by the guy who was ghostwriting her autobiography and was a fascinating insight. #archaeology #Leakey #Olduvai

Human Origins: Climate adaptation linked to early human ancestor Homo erectus likely spread its range well beyond Africa into Eurasia by learning to adapt to a changing climate.

How a long-extinct, early hominid, and human ancestor learned to adapt to a changing climate, possibly priming the species for a break out from Africa to more hostile environments.
