More Portuguese believe that the earliest humans lived among dinosaurs. Also, more people don't believe that we evolved from other animals. Red alert for the scicomm and prehistory community. There is a lot to be done. We are talking about basic knowledge of human and species evolution.
Graphic from the eurobarometer showing the percentage in relation to the sentence «The earliest humans lived at the same time as dinosaurs. 56% say its false, 26% say its true and 18% don´t know.

Archaeology Rocks! My podcast just won the Podes 2024 best podcast of the year in the category Science, Technology and Education. I am so glad and grateful to all the listeners and the fantastic researchers that engage in each episode. Thanks also to the Podes jury, I surely didn't see this coming!

Finally read the brilliant book by @lemoustier.bsky.social Huge mistake doing it in PT. The translation is horror. Words that don't exist in archaeology, sentences one can barely understand... It underserves the scientific and literary quality of the book. Definitely re-reading it in the original.
Picture showing the portgueses edition of the book. Title, author and ilustrations.

The mission of my podcast is to raise awareness of prehistory and about those who research it. It seems that mission is being fulfilled! A huge thanks to all the listeners and to the researchers that engage in conversations with me. #scicomm #podcast #archaeology #prehistory

We've all heard that there is no general public and our communication must be tailored to our specific audience. But how do we do it? And how is it in the specific case of archaeology? Take a look at my newsletter if you get along with PT language🙂 mailchi.mp/afb4e9bc5387... #scicomm #archaeology

I did a little survey on social media and it revealed that understanding our origins, human behavior, and climate change are key reasons to engage with this field. By learning from the past, we can address the present and shape a better future. Let's enhance Prehistory Scicomm! #Prehistory #Scicomm
