  1. 0:16 I'm guessing they were more attractive when they had, like, skin, and were, like, alive 😂😂

  2. Can't say I disagree with minigoogldeebunkerman.

  3. Wait, Europeans AREN'T spending all their time excavating bones under castles?! 🤔🤔😂

  4. YES. But I think marks would wear into the bronze from the yarn if it was a fiber tool. They would primarily be using wool, and that would wear an obvious smooth spot over years of use. Some of them might have been lightly used, but somebody would have been using that thing all the time, you just know it. It's just like dabblers in quilting, knitting, crocheting today vs serious enthusiasts. Both might buy the tool, but the amount of wear would vary.

  5. I know I would like to try and forge my own one of these days, since I'm trying to learn metalworking and I think these are fascinating.

  6. The little Milos are just adorable 😂 My kids have enjoyed KiwiCo for years.

  9. Definitely food for thought.

  10. I'm also a mom of three, and I see where you're coming from here. I have trouble NOT seeing the humanity in our ancient ancestors, and the further back you go, the closer those foremothers were to living beings that we wouldn't even consider hominin. To me, the idea that hominins WEREN'T participating in everyday sorts of ritual like Stefan describes is kind of silly. We know that other modern animals use tools and may even have ritual social events, not just other modern apes (but including them). If non-human animals are using ritualistic behavior today, why wouldn't our clever ancestors have done so as well?

  11. I will freely admit that I'm VERY invested in the slow evolution of your new studio space 😂😂💙

  12. It would be really interesting to compare ALL the tablets, and see if they find any of the matching pieces in other regions. I imagine that, if they were used for trade, once the trade was completed the tablets would be destroyed as proof that the transaction was complete. That would explain why none of the matching pieces are found together. Maybe that's why so many seem discarded, even, perhaps those were unfulfilled contracts that were abandoned after a time. The whole tablets could have been chits that were prepared so that people could hold them in anticipation of future transactions. The fact that they were made from easily sourced and replaced clay ware reinforces, for me, the idea that they were disposable. Pottery was the single use plastic of that age, after all...

  13. ​ @Zaphodox  big underarm hair. And considering they have twelve sets of arms, that's a lot of hair ...

  14. Is that brush attached to the helm with...PVC pipe fixtures?! 😂😂😂😂💙💙💙

  15. I've been getting into metalworking, gradually, and now I REALLY want to try making one of these myself.

  16. People are so very, very weird. And we always have been, even before we were humaning. I'm certain of it.

  17. ​ @StefanMilo I think that is part of why we started to settle into habitations in the way we did. As our brains developed and childbirth became more fraught, it seems to me that it would make more and more sense to find safe places to live longer term, especially in harsher climate regions. Intuitively, I would guess that we tended to begin building villages and permanent communities in either places where everything was close by, or the climate was harsh enough to warrant the creation of a stronghold from whence the people could go out and gather resources.

  18. @BoomBoom-ym5oy  yeah, I was trying to keep things light.

  19. You've really sparked interest with this one, Stefan! I hope you share the comments here with the researchers in Germany, there are some interesting possibilities being posited.

  20. The breastfeeding thing is not really that surprising. What's surprising is how we're so disconnected from this basic mammalian process.

  21. Hmmm. I'm a female. Attracted to the topic. Hmmm

  23. I love how you've brought in the folks from the Nez Perce for this video. Too often indigenous people are invited or treated as if they are extinct. They need to be the ones telling their stories.

  24. That's super cool!! I'd love to help at one of these important sites one day.
