Os povos recolectores do Paleolítico Superior na Europa Central podem ter sido pioneiros na modificação corporal permanente, utilizando piercings faciais conhecidos como “labrets”, revela estudo do Centro de Investigação em Antropologia e Saúde da @FCTUC.

@cristiani_ema Would definitely do something like this again. Also, finding ways to talk in relate to researchers/research outside my field was great. I'm not exposed to that so much anymore. 10/10 would do again.

[John C Willman @johncwillman]

@cristiani_ema It was 4 days of workshop, plus an arrival and departure day. I was the only bio anthro person there but it was still extremely useful and grounding to be working among other scholars and coming together to discuss projects, ideas, problems, etc. twice a day during the event.

A study of Paleolithic skeletons from Central Europe suggests people's teeth were worn down and crowded together because of cheek piercings. https://t.co/ESdF9QDz2P

What started as a book recommendation turned into one of the most enjoyable writing experiences I've ever had. Thanks to @natalatl for taking me on this wild ride to explain Domestication as the evolution of interspecies cooperative breeding. @evanthro. https://t.co/dC4lL6ktIs
