🎙️ Welcome to Episode 3 of Season 3 of The Paleo Post Podcast! This week, we’re excited to have the brilliant Genevieve von Petzinger join us for a fascinating discussion about the latest happenings in the world of paleoanthropology! 🌍 While George Nash is off on another exciting adventure, Genevieve and I take the reins to dive deep into what’s new in the field and the ongoing efforts to expand science communication around anthropology.
In this episode, we talk about how World of Paleoanthropology (WOPA) is working toward growing its impact in the scientific community. We’re in the process of forming a passionate and knowledgeable team to help us share the story of human evolution with the world. If you’re interested in joining our cause, we have an application form for volunteers (link in the description below) where you can get involved, no matter your skillset—whether you’re a writer, social media guru, or passionate about any branch of anthropology. This is your chance to make a difference and help us communicate science in new and engaging ways!
🚀 Beyond these exciting WOPA updates, we also dive into Genevieve’s latest project with National Geographic Learning. How cool is it that her work is now being featured in textbooks around the world? 🌎 From middle schoolers in Egypt to high schoolers in Australia, students are learning about human origins, and Genevieve’s contributions are helping shape their understanding. We discuss the evolution of her work over the last eight years, from her time as a National Geographic Emerging Explorer to her present-day role as an influential science communicator.
We then switch gears to talk about Neanderthals—one of the most intriguing and misunderstood species in our evolutionary history. With new discoveries challenging the old narrative of Neanderthals as simple brutes, we discuss their complex culture, art, and survival strategies. We explore how recent research, like the works of Ludovic Slimak and Rebecca Wragg Sykes, are reshaping the way we see our ancient relatives. Were Neanderthals more like us than we ever imagined? Or were they a distinct species with their own unique behaviors and cognitive abilities? We cover it all in this thought-provoking discussion.
Genevieve and I also tackle the critical role of culture in human evolution—how culture shapes not only our behaviors but also our very identity as a species. Without culture, what would humanity be? We explore the idea that culture is at the core of what makes us human, and how even Neanderthals might have had their own versions of it.
Finally, we reflect on the broader message of resilience and adaptability—traits that have defined not just us, but all our hominin ancestors. From surviving harsh environments to creating art, humans (and our ancient relatives) have proven to be resourceful, and as we face modern challenges, these lessons from our evolutionary past have never been more relevant.

Hello, and Welcome to the latest episode of the Paleo Post Podcast! This, I think, is one of the most detailed and informed episodes we have had yet! Georgie and I discuss Rock and Cave Art as a whole, who their authors could have been if they were Neanderthal, and what happened when Modern Humans entered the picture. Was it possible that they learned from us and that their art became “more advanced” prior to their extinction? I guess you will have to listen to find out! We also talk about what it would be like to live a day in the life of an Ice Age individual, and how important it is to know and try to reconstruct that, what it would mean for science and show that archaeology is no longer all about showing how all items found are ritualistic in nature; but rather that many of them most likely had a utilitarian use. We had a great deal of fun discussing this, so I hope you enjoy listening. The links below are information on some of the stories that we talked about; since a great deal of what we talked about is general information and not from any specific publication, perhaps look into things such as :Neanderthal ArtNeanderthal Cognition Neanderthal and AMH Cultural Transmission Chauvet and other major Cave Art Sites in Europe Finally, you can learn more about the rope-making items found here - https://www.smithsonianmag.com/smart-news/stone-age-people-used-this-35000-year-old-woolly-mammoth-tusk-tool-to-make-rope-scientists-say-180983714/?fbclid=IwAR26oEWHvRgMDTNm_W05pZ0fdQy7HCkpHMGh7DdtVg-E5r_uF0Rcn560l7s_aem_AUUauQLmSIAeL03q4GhM2SiRPF8MwOfojuPB5Pd9VRObZIQ688L4lhxkVqNkYtLp_0YAnd you can find more information about the bones that seem to show Humans in Europe earlier than we “thought”, although again, as I mentioned in the episode, I’m not sure why I included this story, as even I know there are sites much older in France. But here it is - https://ca.news.yahoo.com/old-bones-revealed-earliest-europeans-200133868.htmlThe story about 9 Distinct Cultures in Ice Age Europe - https://www.scientificamerican.com/article/ancient-jewelry-shows-ice-age-europe-had-9-distinct-cultures/We hope you loved this episode as much as we enjoyed making it!

Join us for the second episode of Season Two of the PaleoPost Podcast! We Hope you enjoyed the last episode, and learn something new and exciting in this episode! If you have any comments, concerns, or things you want to add, please let us know by commenting or emailing Seth at [email protected]! Summary:SummaryNew Australian Landmass DiscoverySeth and George discussed the potential of an AI tool that could summarize their discussions. They also touched on George's recent eye surgery and his recovery progress. The main focus of the meeting was a new archaeological discovery - a previously unknown landmass along the Australian coastline that was habitable around 27,000 to 30,000 years ago. This landmass, believed to be around 2,000 square kilometers, could have supported a population between 50,000 and 500,000 people. The discovery is yet to be fully explored and its implications are yet to be fully understood.Discovery of Northern Australia Landmass and Climate Change ImpactsThere was an initial issue with audio communication at the start of the meeting, but it was resolved later. The main topic of the discussion was the discovery of a large landmass in Northern Australia, estimated to be around 400,000 square kilometers. Seth and George compared this to the size of other known landmasses and lakes. The conversation also touched on the impact of climate change, with Seth pointing out that while climate change has always occurred, the current, anthropogenic driven change is accelerating the process. George brought up the concept of the Anthropocene, a new geological epoch marked by human impact on the planet. The conversation concluded with a comment about potentially missing the next ice age due to these accelerated changes.Impact of Modern Humans on Archaeological SitesGeorge discussed the impact of modern humans on the earth, citing examples from archaeological sites. He highlighted the extensive anthropogenic activity that has covered most of the globe and how this has affected soil chemistry. George also shared insights from a project on the River Thames, where he found evidence of human activity dating back thousands of years. He then shifted the conversation to a Spanish excavation of a site in Contabria called Lagama cave, which revealed a settlement site with over 4,000 fossils and flint tools. George pointed out the use of modern technology for the investigation, emphasizing the importance of digitizing archaeological data. However, he also acknowledged the limitations of this approach, particularly for sites with deep stratigraphy.Bradshaw Foundation, Ice Highways, and Pre-Clovis CulturesGeorge and Seth discussed the Bradshaw Foundation's website, commending its resources on global rock art. They considered a potential collaboration with the foundation and agreed to provide a link in the description for interested viewers. The conversation also touched upon the importance of independent thinking and critical analysis in research. Seth emphasized the difference between doing and reading research. They then shifted their discussion to theories about the initial settlement of the Americas. Seth suggested the possibility of "ice highways" for migration, while George proposed the existence of a land bridge between Asia and America. George also mentioned pre-Clovis cultures in North America before 10,000 BC and a hypothesis about the Laurentide and Fennoscandian ice sheets 50,000 years ago. He stressed the need for further research on these topics.Human Migration and Neanderthal Art DiscussionGeorge and Seth discussed the archaeological evidence of human activity in the Americas dating back to 20,000 years ago. They discussed the possible routes humans took to get to the Americas, such as through China, Siberian Russia, and potentially across a bridge. They also highlighted the significance of curiosity in human migration. George then introduced a new story about Neanderthal occupat
