Using cobraa, we present evidence for an extended period of structure in the history of all modern humans, in which two ancestral populations that diverged ~1.5 million years ago came together in an admixture event ~300 thousand years ago, in a ratio of ~80:20%. Immediately after their...

The Roman legions kept their shield wall formation as long as possible during battle while the Vikings formed a makeshift shield wall on rare occasions.

An interesting theory. However it seems the Germanic tribes were also already organised as warrior tribes like the Suebi. One of their chieftains was Ariovistus described by Caesar as a warrior who tried to gain influence and power in Gaul. Furthermore the organisation and warrior tactics of the...

I think people in the past lived in worse air quality than today. Then again, their life expectancy was 40 years, but the air quality was not the prime reason.

The same goes for humans. Whatever they try to tell you needs to be doublechecked. The difference between humans and ai is that humans don't make progress on this.

it seems to be stalling a bit this year though ..

Robots to do all the jobs only within 120 years? That's to bad, because humans will quit working within 50 years.

No, you're right about that, but there are other proofs of rotational technology, like 35000 year old beads made with a rotating drill.

any area where we don't have any homo sapiens DNA older than 26000 years

Was this map discussed on COP29 in Azerbajian? I have the impression it was almost exclusively about financial transfers. There are no transfers needed to impose carbon taxes in every country.

it's not simply black or white most fail to see things in perspective - from both sides

Flax was already spun and dyed by HG in Georgia before the last ice age. Rotational technologies existed long before the wheel and axle. The wheel and axle was not the invention of rotational technologie, it was the invention of the bearings for the axle, which were made in copper or bronze.

wrong question IMO .. why is there so much biass in discussing climate change? .. from both sides it seems very difficult to see things in perspective

It shows again that there were multiple migrations over time across the Caucasus into the Volga-Don steppe and also back migrations. I think Remontnoye was Proto-Indo-European.

• A 7000-year-old genome from the Caucasus links the Volga’s first herders to farmers of W. Asia • Human DNA points the spread of farming through the Caucasus to the Eastern European steppes...

The future is automation, period. Whether it is ports or industry, agriculture or services. If America wishes to keep its industries, they will have to transform it and educate its labour forces. Keeping the industries like it was 20 or 30 years ago is a nostalgic dream.

From what I read above, it seems food swamps have a higher correlation with obesity, or maybe the influence of food deserts are understudied compared to food swamps? It would be interesting to find out how these food swamps came about? Maybe unhealthy food was and still is in higher demand in...

I do a lot of cycling on my racebike or my gravel bike. I avoid cities. The worst car drivers are those who drive to slow. They are not focused on traffic and have no clue what's behind or next to them. Their behaviour is completely unpredictable.

Skeletal remains of a group of foragers massacred around 10,000 years ago on the shores of a lagoon is unique evidence of a violent encounter between clashing groups of ancient hunter-gatherers, and suggests the “presence of warfare” in late Stone Age foraging societies...
