This small carving of a water bird was created c. 33,000 years ago. Thought to be a diver, cormorant, or duck. From beak to tail the figure is 4.7 cm long. The sculpted piece of mammoth ivory, found in the Hohle Fels cave in Germany, may be the earliest representation of a bird.

Conocíamos fases húmedas en la "Green Arabia" durante los últimos 1,1 Ma. Hubo más periodos húmedos en los últimos 8 Ma. Intrigante aporte para pensar sobre las migraciones de los homininos. Recurrent humid phases in Arabia over the past 8 million years nature.com/articles/s4158…

The "fossil art wall" is the focus of our in-situ work at the 105 site - its where much of the dating is done for the site and where we will concentrate efforts of associating loose blocks with verifiable in-situ deposits - watch this space! #fossils #explorers #Discovery

It's uncanny that the sequence of hominin discovery from tiny fragments of hand or foot, to teeth, to inner structure of teeth, and ultimately to biomolecules has unfolded so many times lately. With Homo luzonensis, we're waiting on the biomolecules…

One of the biggest potential biases in fossil samples is sex. With few individuals, it’s unlikely that the number of male and female individuals will be evenly balanced. One sex may be entirely absent. This is skewing our view of a mysterious group: the Denisovans.
