For this #FossilFriday, we present Germaine Henri-Martin. She gave up a career as a concert violinist to excavate Paleolithic caves. At Fontéchevade she found human skull fragments that fuelled decades of debate on modern human origins. #WomenInArchaeology #Prehistory #Archaeology

After what feels like 10,000 years my latest Birth of China video is free! This one covers the Chinese Late Neolithic, a period that saw the emergence of large urban centers throughout the North and South, the appearance of grand burial traditions, and perhaps even early states. Check it out!

Hello #PortfolioDay !! I'm Adrian a concept artists who likes to do realistic environments Portfolio: artstation.com/adrianregalado Email: adrianregaladoart@gmail.com

Hey #portfolioday! I'm Marina, a science illustrator and paleoartist. I draw about nature, history and sometimes fantasy and folklore, but I mainly recreate scenes of human life in the past with a focus on children in the archaeological record😊 🎨 mlezcano.com 📧 mlezcano.illustration@gmail.com

I made this illustration of Cabuniaegino, a pre-roman deity of the Cantabri. His name is only mentioned in one inscription on an ara (a type of votive altar) found near the oppidum at Mount Cildá and has been interpreted as a god of healing and medicine.

This year's illustration for the "Altamira para escolares" educational activities program at @museodealtamira.bsky.social focuses on children again but also on nature and our relationship as humans with our environment.

Aren't petroglyphs fascinating? I drew this panel filled with dots and crosses from Valderredible in preparation for my archaeological drawing workshop at Tribus del Íber a couple of weekends ago. 🖌 Do you like more just the ink drawing or the one with the watercolor background?

Look alive artists! The next #PortfolioDay is in one week on Tuesday, July 14th. Visit portfolioday.art for more info!

Hail Heroes! Sleep easy with calm tensions under the watchful patrols of the Pale Inquisitors of The Church of the Pale Flame! With the ineffable @adrianregalado.bsky.social leading the style, they are sure to weed out each and every lurking cultist! #Art #TTRPG #Indie

A late Iron Age couple together, in love and displaying all of their parure. With @adrianregalado.bsky.social and myself as pose reference models 😙

What was spring like in the north of Iberia during the late Magdalenian period? I imagine it may have looked something like this.

The baby blackbirds in my flowerpot have grown so much! They are about to jump out of the nest any moment now so I made a cute drawing and wrote a bit a bout them (in Spanish) on my Ko-fi. You can read it here -> ko-fi.com/post/Hay-mir...

Two little blackbirds have been born minutes ago in a flowerpot on my balcony 🥰 They are so so tiny!! And look very hungry. Don't worry, their parents are taking good care of them and us humans at home are not interfering 🤗

Sketch of an image I'm working on

We all know about the hundreds of horses and bisons painted in caves all around Europe but there is a number of species that are much less common in Paleolithic art 🐧🐆 This illustration is featured on @thehistocrat.bsky.social 's excellent video on this topic. Go check it out! youtu.be/RX_76nmaJas

"The canal" Something I've been working for some time

My latest video, featuring artwork by the wonderful @mlezcano.bsky.social , is now live over on youtube! This one covers Cave Art's weirder animals, ranging from beasts large enough to beat you up, to those so small that it's a miracle they were depicted at all. Check them out! youtu.be/RX_76nmaJas

Jurjânîya - The cold of hell We saw a land which made us think a gate to the cold of hell had opened before us. When snow falls, it is always accompanied by a rough and violent wind.

A COZY DWELLING - SO MANY COLORS #prehistovember2025 I joined two prompts together to imagine the appearance of an Iron Age hut. A hearth, herbs, warm blankets, things for weaving and a sleepy scruffy dog by your side are the epitome of coziness and what everybody needs to be happy in my opinion.
