Universities are places of excellence, knowledge, expertise. Why are executives paying $735M for consultants? Consultants with nepotistic links doing fuck all. Do universities seriously not have the expertise within their ranks to do the necessary work?! https://t.co/zhD6E1B6fu

Largest study on #ochre extraction in #Africa is out in @NatureComms, showing that ochre has been used as a dye and for ritual purposes for almost 50,000 years. The study also confirms the “Lion Cavern” in #Eswatini as the world’s oldest ochre mine. ⛏️ 👉 https://t.co/QnvFPPtNWd
