  3. Working on a side project on s from old excavations, I have found this specimen of partially destroyed (and I think reworked) axe head. I have never seen these kinds of markings: grooved line approx. on the axis, diagonal lines and rubbing/roughening in the area where shaft-hole was drilled. No other specimen has this kind of stuff. Can it be a preparation/measurements that failed grind of?

  4. @joeroe I think what is cool about this paper is it shows how unique early Holocene biomes are, and therefore it is mostly adaptations I have in mind now. But you are right, that it changes the perception of Neolithic niche creation

  5. Interesting article, in a way that the results seem to me simultaneously kind of obvious, and perspective changing.

  6. Tracking back such a big population (1 in 200 of all men) to one relatively recent lineage always was sus to me.
    my confirmation bias is very happy about the results this study.

  7. for today's let us remember a famous quote *not from Charles Darwin* [1]

    And a second one, from the Origins:

    "As all the living forms of life are the lineal descendants of those which lived long before the Silurian epoch, we may feel certain that the ordinary succession by generation has never once been broken, and that no cataclysm has desolated the whole world."[2]

  8. Today I finally visited an exhibition about the Early Bronze Age fortified settlement in Maszkowice, S Poland, which is supposedly the northernmost example of (proto)cyplopean type defence structure. It is amazing site, and I love how it was researched through the last 15 or so years.

  9. Have you ever called a conclusion in a paper you're reviewing "ridiculous"?

  10. @basepair Inkscape (or CorelDraw/Illustrator if they happen to be on the same computer as I do).
    I was about to press InDesign/Scribus option for that, but I think it makes a difference for some people, so it went as "other".

    Once I did an online html version "clickable" by qr, with some panel graphics turned to animation (I wanted to try quarto/RStudio). Some people liked it, but I'm afraid in general it was opposite to the ^^"

  11. Hello fellow mastodons, especially past-oriented ones! I work with neolithic stuff, trying to make some sense of it for me and ideally for others. So to give it a try: have anyone here used d-place.org/ before, for "ethongraphic analogy" seeking? I'm looking into eneolithc housing structures in Poland for my PhD, and most of the interpretations go to "ehtnographical examples" anyway, so why not use all thats available in the topic?

  12. Laser cooking flint leftovers stew on rice.
    This piece of flint failed to pupate into the axe head... But I utilised it anyway to chop a piece of antler in a hand-axe manner.

  13. I've got an idea for which I need to find/scrape other keywords from scientific papers matched by one of keywords. I have only once did search via PoP (harzing.com/resources/publish-), but I don't see the other keywords in the results.
    I checked the scholar package for R (cran.r-project.org/web/package), but I don't see what I'm looking for there.
    What tool would you recommend for that?

  14. Recently I've tried to use logseq (@logseq) for recording the workflow during lithics' analyses. I love the way the whiteboard works in elastic, graph-like manner combining pictures, hand drawing, and text, and how easy it is to call the data to the notes section for wrap-up.

  15. Ok, as a citizen of neighboring country I need some serious explanation

  16. Sadly, authors did not describe the experiment they conducted

  17. It appears that people were eating other people in Poland as early as 18 kya. This old hypothesis was revived by the analysis of cut marks. More here:
