Age, Disease, or Both? A New Perspective on the Past
An international study funded by the ROOTS Cluster of Excellence discusses solutions to fundamental challenges in research on ageing and disease in past societies.
At what age did a prehistoric human die? Are the pathological alterations to the skeleton due to old age or to disease? An new study discusses solutions to fundamental challenges in the field of paleopathology 👇

In top left corner we see Neanderthal and H sapiens crania meet face to face showing their very different skull shape. Below is the ancient Sulawesi rock art of a wild pig. To the right we glimpse engraved and notched artefacts including Blombos haematite, below right the Hohlenstein-Stadel lion person..

Rätselhafte Wüstendrachen: Überleben in der Jungsteinzeit
In den 1920er-Jahren werden im Nahen Osten die ältesten Megastrukturen der Menschheit entdeckt. Wer sind die Erbauer dieser rätselhaften "Wüstendrachen"?
In der Arabischen Wüste existieren teils kilometerlange Trockenmauer-Strukturen, die aus der Luft wie Drachen aussehen. Die Doku "Rätselhafte Wüstendrachen" begleitet das South-Eastern Badia Archaeological Project bei der Untersuchung des Phänomens. Jetzt in der @zdfde.bsky.social-Mediathek 👇 (1/2)

Among other things, we are currently busy finalizing our osteological protocols—and THAT doesn't make it any easier to estimate age at death from skeletons that are missing the 💀... Fortunately, there is some expertise in #bayesianmodeling on the team as well 🦴🧑💻😮💨 #paleodemography #humanosteology

A Mass Grave With Dozens of Headless Skeletons Holds Dark Truths About Human Desperation, Scientists Say
The 7,000-year-old mass grave is a puzzle piece in the complex breakdown of a culture.
Another piece with a sensational headline—same topic, but a bit of a different angle from @latest-content-popularmechanics-com.1440.news
Interestingly, the editors went with a skull for the teaser image💀👀⁉️

Evidence for contact between LBK and hunter-gatherers, it grows at every turn, but we are no closer to really understanding the range and scope of relationships. The site of Eilsleben gives us more evidence of just how close interaction could have been. Plus that deer antler mask 🤩

Roots Beneath the Rift: Ancient Southern African Genomes Recast the Story of Homo sapiens
New DNA from Stone Age individuals reveals a long period of population isolation, local innovation, and unexpected evolutionary pathways in our species' deep history.
Ancient genomes from southern Africa reveal a long-isolated population that shaped the evolution of Homo sapiens. Their DNA preserves lost diversity, unique adaptations, and a deep history of local innovation. #HumanEvolution #Anthropology #AncientDNA #Africa www.anthropology.net/p/roots-bene...
