With continued carbon emissions, the melting of other ice caps and thermal expansion of the ocean, a multi-metre sea-level rise appears likely. #ClimateEmergency.#Greenland.#IceCaps.

Researchers were able to obtain DNA from 6 skulls, enabling them to determine skin, hair, & eye color of individuals. DNA from a female skull indicates that she was blonde but darker skinned, attesting to the genetic complexity of Scandinavia at that time.

The Scandinavian man lived a long life 8,000 years ago before his skull was selected for a still-inscrutable ceremony.

Hybrid specimens suggests that interbreeding was either common or not considered odd. This could support the idea that both the Neanderthals and the Denisovans interbred with humans to the point where they ceased to exist as a species. #HumanEvolution

Despite the lack of fossil evidence, the location of the cave in Siberia and its cool climate has meant that DNA within these remains was well-preserved enough to get a complete genomic sequence. #GeoArchaeology #HumanEvolution #Fossils .

The Brehon Laws stated that wives held the “right to be consulted on every subject”. Women chose who to marry&were never considered to be their father’s or husband’s property. Women owned their own wealth & retained property in the case of divorce.

“There’s something wonderfully escapist about immersing yourself in the past. There are five pillars of wellbeing: be physically active, connect with other people, make a contribution, keep learning and be mindful. Archaeology can do all of those things.”

Artists’ intuition instead of science drive most facial reconstructions of extinct species. Some researchers hope to change that.

The first of these encounters was with Neanderthals and resulted in about 2% Neanderthal genetic ancestry in today’s non-Africans.
