What about archaelogists? We keep releasing curses.

Are you looking for a summer field school? My Neanderthal one is paused right now, but my Macedonian colleagues are at Amzabegovo, one of the earliest Neolithic sites in Europe (and Gimbutas worked here all the way back in the 60s). I can promise fantastic food! www.bhfieldschool.org/program/birt...

The connection between masculinity and meat-eating in our culture is likely what fueled some of the very negative reactions on the internet to the idea that ::gasp:: women hunted too! (and I'm quoted!)

Get excited!! 👏👏 - The BAWMN has organized several events during the #AABAs2026! We hope to see you there! Below is information on the workshop, the World Cafe (registration required), and our popular Happy Hour:

I love reading John's substack, but this one has me particularly chuffed since he is highlighting the part of this new paper that got me most excited (and was ignored in a lot of the coverage). He gives a great summary of identifying matrilineal kin networks/ -based migration in the human genome.

@bawmn.bsky.social is offering an intimate World Café luncheon March 19th at the AABAs on the timely theme of Collective Action ~ a chance to really connect and reflect in a relaxed setting over a delicious Italian meal. Register here: forms.gle/vXsTK8EWPf9A...

There's still time to register for this week's talk, given by @professorlacy.bsky.social ! Sign up here: liverpool-ac-uk.zoom.us/meeting/regi... We hope to see you there!

Please join us next week, 9th October 2025, at 13:00 BST, for our next seminar of the semester. We will be joined by @professorlacy.bsky.social, University of Delaware - more details 👇 If you'd like to join, please register here: liverpool-ac-uk.zoom.us/meeting/regi... We hope to see you there!

So basically all anthropology research?

1/19 In November 2023, @caraocobock.bsky.social and @professorlacy.bsky.social wrote in Scientific American: “The Theory That Men Evolved to Hunt and Women Evolved to Gather is Wrong.” (Link below). Much gnashing of teeth ensued. The authors have aptly defended the work. Yet the gnashers are back.

Having the cover article in Scientific American @sciam.bsky.social is one of the great highlights of my career <3

Our (the amazing @professorlacy.bsky.social) articles got a nice write up in South Africa. Thank you to Rebecca Rogers Ackermann for putting us in touch with Elsabe Brits! www.dailymaverick.co.za/article/2023...

Argues that not only women well-suited to endurance activities like hunting, but there's little evidence to support they were not hunting in the Paleolithic. Woman the hunter: The archaeological evidence 🧪 Sarah Lacy, Cara Ocobock anthrosource.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1111/...
