With an estimated date of 259,000 years ago, the hominin specimen from Florisbad poses a biogeographic problem: Was a Homo sapiens-like population present as close as 400 km from Homo naledi in the Rising Star cave system, at the same time?

I also shared a lot from this classic @sciam article by Theya Molleson, "The eloquent bones of Abu Hureyra." Still one of the best-written and illustrated series of examples of activity traces in ancient bones. https://t.co/2gRyvu4hWf

New preprint by @RobertMBeyer and coworkers trying to match paleoclimate records to out-of-Africa dispersal opportunities. https://t.co/2RXzRdAr7B Personally, I think it's likely now that Africa-Eurasia migration and contact was frequent and stochastic, not climate-limited.

#inktober fourth is KNM-ER 17400. This is a skull, eroded on the front, that has been attributed to Paranthropus boisei. The individual lived around 1.8 million years ago. At around 390 ml, its brain is one of the smallest in the hominin fossil record. #FossilFriday

#inktober third: The D2600 mandible from Dmanisi -- teeth much whiter than in real life.

Awesome new paper by @Rui_Diogo_Lab visualizing "lost muscles" in embryonic humans that reflect deep developmental homology with other mammals: https://t.co/EWIboZiyH9

“The images had the impact of justifying the expenditure." Art and visualization in astronomy: https://t.co/6Ndro5cWGd

Fun article by @GretchenVogel1 looking into the phylogeny of extinct sloths using 100,000-year-old collagen @sciencemagazine “There are loads of different extinct sloths that we could add to the tree,” Presslee says. “That’s the next step.”
