🧪1/2 Here’s a sample of words flagged by US agencies for restriction/avoidance, according to government documents as Trump seeks to purge the federal government of progressive initiatives. Archaeology has never been so disruptive! shorturl.at/dka55 #sciencenotsilence @standupforscience.bsky.social

The Words Federal Agencies Are Discouraged From Using Under Trump

Federal agencies have issued guidance to employees on hundreds of terms to limit or avoid using. An analysis of government websites shows many of the same words being removed.

The end of a fruitful week in Halle (Saale, Germany) with colleagues from the Landesmuseum, studying ornaments for my THREADS project @nouvelleaquitaine.bsky.social and bone tools with L. Doyon for his ERC ExOsTech research. Exciting insights @univbordeaux.bsky.social @cnrsecologie.bsky.social

A great example of a collaborative effort (including @mariesoressi.bsky.social) to increase the comparability between lithic assemblages - here between the Uluzzian & Chatelperronian! We need more such work in all of the Paleolithic. link.springer.com/article/10.1... #archaeology #Palaeolithic

The Uluzzian and Châtelperronian: No Technological Affinity in a Shared Chronological Framework - Journal of Paleolithic Archaeology

The Châtelperronian and Uluzzian techno-complexes are identified in western Europe in the same stratigraphic position, between the late Middle Palaeolithic and other Upper Palaeolithic assemblages. Bo...

I am very happy and excited that our finds from Ranis along with those from the 1930s excavations (now stored at the Museum for Prehistory at Halle(Saale) led to these incredible results! A big Thank You to @arevsumer.bsky.social and the entire team for this amazing work!

I am very happy to share our new paper on the genetics of some of the first modern humans who ever lived in Europe! We sequenced nuclear DNA from 13 specimens from Ranis in Germany, and found that they belonged to at least 6 individuals. www.nature.com/articles/s41... (1/n)

New studies out yesterday show when modern humans last mated w/Neanderthals, but it's the details in this paper by @arevsumer.bsky.social @kaypruefer.bsky.social & co. that got me–like a mother and daughter found together after 45K years, or their close relative identified in a distant Czech cave.

Mystery woman’s DNA reveals close family ties between Europe’s earliest people

Pair of studies shines light on how modern humans and Neanderthals settled the continent together

Excited to share the groundbreaking work by @arevsumer.bsky.social, who successfully sequenced the oldest modern human genomes ever! 💀 A scientifically thrilling and deeply rewarding project to be part of!

Two very important papers released today on sapiens and neanderthal admixture 1. Neanderthal ancestry through time: Insights from genomes of ancient and present-day humans www.science.org/doi/10.1126/... 2. Earliest modern human genomes constrain timing of Neanderthal admixture Summaries

Neanderthal ancestry through time: Insights from genomes of ancient and present-day humans

Gene flow from Neanderthals has shaped genetic and phenotypic variation in modern humans. We generated a catalog of Neanderthal ancestry segments in more than 300 genomes spanning the past 50,000 year...
