@thenintharchitect.bsky.socialWhat if a distant branch of our evolutionary family had survived?
My first film starts with Sahelanthropus fossils, then explores an explicitly imagined alternative history.

@thenintharchitect.bsky.socialWhat can a thigh bone reveal about walking six million years ago?
I made a film about Orrorin, fossil evidence and the uncertainty around early bipedalism.

@lemoustier.bsky.social🏺🧪 🦣 Will absolutely be tuning in fo some of these excellent #HumanOrigins talks, hosted by one of my academic depts - online, open to all
@lemoustier.bsky.socialThis topic of self-medication, including in primates, is so interesting, and widely relevant to #HumanOrigins in giving us baselines in how other non-hominin species utilise plants, but in this case, while "putative" is in the title, I think more data needed

@freegardener.bsky.socialA Chinese quarry just gave Denisovans a home: bone tools, deer hunting, and up to 120,000 years of occupation—the first long, rich record #Denisovans #Archaeology #HumanOrigins #StoneAge

@fediboard-science.bsky.socialResearchers have identified 25,000-year-old evidence of betel nut consumption among Ice Age foragers in Indonesia, pushing back the earliest confirmed human drug use by thousands of years.
@freegardener.bsky.socialChina's Bianfu Cave holds the richest Denisovan fossil trove yet, with teeth, tools & butchered bones revealing how they lived 160,000 #Denisovans #Archaeology #HumanOrigins #Fossils
