🐪🎨 Researchers at Max Planck Institute of Geoanthropology discovered 12,000-year-old rock art in #SaudiArabia's Nefud #Desert, featuring life-sized engravings of #camels, #gazelles, and extinct aurochs that push back evidence of human activity in the region by 2,000 years.
The #art shows #prehistoric people followed seasonal #water sources and traveled hundreds of kilometers for materials like shell beads, with some 2-meter-tall engravings carved on nearly inaccessible cliff faces nearly 40 meters above the ground.

Antelopine #Antelopes: The Giraffe-Gazelles https://synapsida.blogspot.com/2024/07/antelopine-antelopes-giraffe-gazelles.html
"Despite appearances, true #gazelles are not the closest living relatives of the #springbok. That honour is probably tied between two other species, although there have yet to be sufficient genetic studies to absolutely nail that down - one could be closer than the other. They likely diverged from the springbok over 10 million years ago in the late #Miocene"

Musical Interlude: I was listening to some Scott Joplin today, and realized how relaxing and comforting I found his piano rags to be. And then I remembered this lovely routine...so today I'm giving you not only some music, but some dance as well.
"Solace," composed by Scott Joplin, performed by uncredited musicians, danced by Juliet Prowse, from "The Muppet Show" (1977).

http://synapsida.blogspot.com/2024/04/antelopine-antelopes-gazelles-of-asia.html"on the whole, westerners associate #gazelles with Africa... However, they may have originated in Asia and various species survive on both continents today, having split apart around 2 or 3 million years ago at or shortly before, the start of the Ice Ages."
