🗿 NEW: Comic artist @Ullilust spent years reading #iceage #archaeology before #drawing it.
Her "Early Man Was a Woman," the first comic to win #Germany’s top #nonfiction prize, argues the #StoneAge was more egalitarian than the familiar male-hunter image. #Paleolithic #art favors female figures, she notes, yet male researcher bias long dismissed them.

Gene That Differs Between Humans and Neanderthals Could Shed Light On The Species Disappearance Mouse Study Suggests
Allan Henderson (CC BY 2.0) A gene called ASDL, which helps synthesize DNA, differs between modern humans and our extinct human relatives. The findings could shed light on why Neanderthals vanished. A protein that helps synthesize DNA is different in modern humans than it is in Neanderthals and Denisovans our closest extinct relatives and new experiments in mice genetically modified to express the modern human version hint that this may have made us behave differently…….Continue […] -

Stonehenge, au coucher du soleil.
Version entièrement gratuite, puisqu'il y a un sentier, une route historique anglaise, qui longe le site, et avec sa tente ou son véhicule, on peut se garer sur la piste qui mène à cette petite route. On est juste à 10m plus loin que ceux qui paient le tarif grand public (ou ceux qui paient le tarif VIP pour aller au milieu des pierres, encore un autre débat, ça).
Mais bref, une manière simple et économique de profiter du site car non limité dans le temps.#Stonehenge #Travel #Voyage #England #UnitedKingdom #Prehistory #Préhistoire #Stones #OldStones

Dans les bons plans gratuits en Écosse, on peut visiter beaucoup de vestiges de la préhistoire, dont ce cercle de pierres aka le Temple Wood Circle Stone, qui a servi sur au moins un millénaire (bien que pour différents usages et on ne les connaît pas tous. Il reste encore 13 pierres sur les 22 ou 23 d'origine, pas mal !
