The lost languages of ancient humans: Listen to stone-age chat
The fossilised bones of our ancestors remain silent. So, how can we possibly imagine what our earliest languages sounded like?

#Sumatra Donations to help can be made to PanEco.ch choosing flood disaster. All the people in these photos are my friends and people my family lived beside during my work with #orangutans. They have lost everything and I am doing all I can to raise awareness and funds for them. Every bit helps

#Sumatra isn’t just a research site for me — it’s part of my family, my history, my identity.

#Academicsky riddle me this: You publish in a high ranking journal but production published your article without actioning critical amendments to proofs - colleagues have noticed and been in contact. How cross are you and how long do you wait for a response and explanation from the journal? #😡
