To everyone who is active on tbe discord I'm sorry I wasn't active to ban the person posting the sketchy posts and links immediately. I was away from my devices for the day for personal reasons and for that I am truly sorry.

​

I hope everyone is OK and no one was affected by anything.

You cant find me in the prologue, great eye. You are the best at spotting things I cannot.

I feel like im losing my mind why does everything sound like its written by AI now?

If this has been done before I apologise I havent seen it posted anywhere.

I always love hearing the news of a new discovery of a hominid. Its interesting to read up on where they were discovered and how they connect in the funky tree we call our evolutionary line.

I know the evolution of hominids is less of a straight line and it doesn't occur like seen on Rudolph Zallinger's March of Progress. It is a slow process going from one to the other. But how many undiscovered hominid are there to discover, and how many could there possibly be seeing as evolution is constant. Homo Naledi from 300000 years ago was maybe not the same Naledi from 200000 years ago, would they still be classed as the same hominid?

If I made any mistakes please feel free to correct me.

Have a good day.

I grew up in South Africa where Clegg and Savuka come from and ive loved them all my life. And in all honesty I think Scatterlings of Africa should be on the list of songs that represent Paleoanthropology.

What songs do you think represent Paleoanthropology nicely?

I know its a hard question to answer but I find it interesting. I know depending on your heritage you would have a different percentage of Neanderthal DNA to other people.

If im not mistaken there would have been many instances of sapien neanderthal breeding but the only living decent would be that of Neanderthal Male and Sapien Female.

So going off of that how many Neanderthal ancestors do you think everyone has?

Please feel free to correct me on any mistakes I have made, im here to learn not to prove how smart I am. Thank you and have a great day.

Would they be kept in sanctuaries like other great apes around the world and how would the field of Paleoanthropology have changed if we had another member of Homo that wasn't as similar to Sapiens were as Neanderthals.

Id love to hear your thoughts. Have a great day.

In all honesty its always been my favorite next to Farcry 5. I know its not the most historically accurate game in the world by a long shot but I think its an enjoyable game that actually tried to be original.

Im aware that the Neanderthals in this fall into the cliché of being brutish people but I think their involvement is still interesting.

And I am aware that the Neanderthals are alive too late if trying to be historically accurate.

So if you did play it what did you think?

Even if its between 1% or 2% for Neanderthal DNA I think that it is awesome. For me my Neanderthal ancestors( however few in numbers they are) mean just as much to me as my Sapien ancestors. Ive seen a few people talking about it in posts and replies and I feel like I'm starting to understand more about it.

Id love to hear your thoughts on the matter and if you have any info youd like to share id love to hear it.

P.S. I apologise that ive been posting so much recently I hope its not unbearable, Im just loving talking to you all and learning from you. Ive still got alot to learn and ill never know everything but here's to trying I guess.

In all honesty for me im hoping for more Sapien-Neanderthal hybrid discoveries. Im hoping we expand our current understanding of Sapien-Neanderthal coexistence and interactions.

What do you think? What are you hoping for?

P.S. I am aware the image shown is Homo Naledi, I just thought it was a cool image to use for this post.

I have Britain: One million years of the human story and Our Human Story both from the Natural History Museum.

But im looking for some indepth books that will teach me as much as I can get out of them.
