Schon in der Früh- und Urgeschichte vertrauten Jung-Familien auf Baby-Fläschchen. 🍼 Das fanden ÖAW-Archäolog*innen letztes Jahr heraus. Ihre Entdeckung legt nahe, dass Frauen damals eine weitaus vielschichtigere soziale Rolle hatten als bisher angenommen.

You can't keep a good team down - Oliver Schmitsbergers recent survey around the Csaterberg Hills, Austria, found the 1st evidence for (early Upper?) Palaeolithic opalite use directly at the raw material source! He also found Neolithic flakes & hammerstones, & this👇 #archaeology
