🗿 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.

Archaeologists generally regard Mesopotamia as "the beginning of civilization" but shocking new evidence that defies comprehension clearly suggests that highly advanced civilizations existed in pre-history.

Are Colorado Moose Invasive? New Research Says NO

“The modern Colorado moose is often considered just that: modern - brought to the state by wildlife officials in the late 1970s, preceded by very occasional reports of moose sightings in the 19th and early 20th centuries.
Since being translocated to Colorado, these charismatic megafauna have been a source of both fascination and concern. In Rocky Mountain National Park [RMNP], where moose populations have thrived, ecosystems have been changing, and moose-associated impacts have sparked renewed conversations about managing an animal labeled “non-native.”
However, newly published research [link above] by an interdisciplinary team of scientists, archivists and Tribal cultural heritage leaders shows that the “non-native” label is inaccurate. They present evidence demonstrating that moose have been in Colorado for at least centuries and likely longer.
The researchers analyzed newspaper archives, archaeological site reports, scientific journals, museum collections and photo archives to understand where and when moose were present in Colorado prior to the mid-1900s. Perhaps most importantly, notes lead author William Taylor, a University of Colorado Boulder associate professor of anthropology and CU Museum curator of archaeology, the scholars sought Indigenous histories, and in doing so found evidence of moose being well known and deeply integrated into traditional knowledge of Native people in the southern Rockies.
Crystal C’Bearing, a study co-author and Northern Arapaho Tribal Historic Preservation Officer, notes that among the Northern Arapaho, "the moose is considered a valued commodity among the Tribe.” She adds that societies within the Northern Arapaho "utilize many animals, including moose, in their clothing, society items and regalia. This tradition continues today."
The scholarly approach of joining Indigenous knowledge with historical accounts, archaeology and paleontology, "shows the power of multiple independent lines of evidence converging on the conclusion that moose were part of southern Rocky Mountain ecosystems long before modern reintroductions," says study co-author Jonathan Dombrosky of Crow Canyon Archaeological Center and the University of Alabama. "More broadly, the study demonstrates how historical sciences can help us better understand the origins of modern ecosystems and make more informed decisions about their future…"

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 !

Solving the Riddle, is an attempt to solve a simple mystery. Did neolithic people have boats capable if crossing between Scotland and Orkney? If not how did huge numbers get there to build the Ring of Brodgar?

Quick set of conclusions about the possibility that neolithic people being able to walk from Scotland to Orkney across land that was washed away as global sea levels rose. Conclusions may or may not be correct, What do you think?

The #Pentland Firth is the stretch of water that separates the north of #Scotland from #Orkney.
It is a temperamental passage of water.
Proper archaeologists believe that #Neolithic people migrated to Orkney, across the Firth in boats, to live in #skarabrae and the #NessOfBrodgar.
I'm not a proper archaeologist!

US campaign behind the turmoil in Kiev
This article is more than 20 years old.But while the gains of the orange-bedecked "chestnut revolution" are Ukraine's, the campaign is an American creation, a sophisticated and brilliantly conceived exercise in western branding and mass marketing that, in four countries in four years, has been used to try to salvage rigged elections and topple unsavoury regimes.
Funded and organised by the US government, deploying US consultancies, pollsters, diplomats, the two big American parties and US non-government organisations, the campaign was first used in Europe in Belgrade in 2000 to beat Slobodan Milosevic at the ballot box.
...
In Ukraine, the equivalent is a ticking clock, also signalling that the Kuchma regime's days are numbered.
Stickers, spray paint and websites are the young activists' weapons. Irony and street comedy mocking the regime have been hugely successful in puncturing public fear and enraging the powerful.
...
The Democratic party's National Democratic Institute, the Republican party's International Republican Institute, the US state department and USAid are the main agencies involved in these grassroots campaigns as well as the Freedom House NGO and billionaire George Soros's open society institute.
US pollsters and professional consultants are hired to organise focus groups and use psephological data to plot strategy.
...
Officially, the US government spent $41m (£21.7m) organising and funding the year-long operation to get rid of Milosevic from October 1999. In Ukraine, the figure is said to be around $14m.
...
If the events in Kiev vindicate the US in its strategies for helping other people win elections and take power from anti-democratic regimes, it is certain to try to repeat the exercise elsewhere in the post-Soviet world.

Yesterday I took a long #gravelride through time. 140km (go and return) across the country side from home to the museum of prehistory in Le Grand Pressigny since I am a great lover of very old stuff 😀.
Many country lanes, very muddy trails, a blue sky with beautiful white clouds and the perfect temperature for such a ride.
Finaly it took me longer than I thought with an incredible average pace of 13,5kph!! I had to walk my bike across very wet pass several times and I stoped to take a lot of photos.
I was the entire day in the good company of singing birds and roe deer in the fields.
So many good vibes!!!#gravel #bike #bikeride #gravelbike #bikeriding #countryside #CountrysideView #nature #Birds #mamouth #PreHistory #velo #Vélo #bikepacking
