Congratulations Marta!! Well deserved honor!! 👏👏👏

"But now, as an anthropologically-trained primatologist, I see this story through a different lens. What was apparent watching the documentary was that this compelling narrative is rooted in colonialism and neo-colonialism."
Please, read this amazing essay.

Perhaps, but at the end of the day, it ain’t science if we are not disagreeing on how to interpret the data. If there is one point I think we can agree on is that we have been seriously underestimating the amount of variation in Asian Chibanian hominins.

[new paper alert]. This student led paper is really cool. Hopefully, it closes the lid on arguments that the Australasian tektites cannot be used to date the Bose handaxes. 💪💪

New Sausage of Science! Chris Lynn @christopherdlynn.bsky.social and Courtney Manthey @courtneymanthey.bsky.social chat with Dr. Christopher Bae @paleobae.bsky.social, a distinguished paleoanthropologist from the University of Hawai’i at Mānoa whose research focuses on human evolution in East Asia.

Awesome synthesis of how the name Homo bodoensis came about. Nice job. 👏👏👏

SoS 238: Rethinking the obstetric dilemma with Anna Warrener Host Courtney Manthey unpack the obstetric dilemma with Dr. Anna G. Warrener. Dr. Anna G. Warrener earned her PhD from Washington University in St. Louis in 2012. She is now an assistant professor of

The classic rendering of the obstetric dilemma hypothesis is that the size & shape of the human pelvis has been constrained by its restructuring for bipedal locomotion, making birth difficult. Nice discussion on the topic with CU Denver's Dr. Anna Warrener. #paleoanthropology #humanevolution

A bird's-eye view of a former Auschwitz II-Birkenau camp showing a wide dirt pathway flanked by parallel rows of barbed-wire fences. Groups of visitors walk along the path, surrounded by the remnants of brick structures and barracks, now reduced to foundations. Green grass contrasts with the somber history of the site, as the path leads toward a guard tower in the distance.

Auschwitz was at the end of a long process. It did not start from gas chambers.

This hatred was gradually developed by humans. From ideas, words, stereotypes & prejudice through legal exclusion, dehumanization & escalating violence... to systematic and industrial murder.

Auschwitz took time.

KHON2 (local Hawaii news) picked up Homo juluensis today… 😎😎
