If things had gone differently. Palaeoloxodon creutzburgi, one of the several elephants that used to live on Mediterranean islands, greeting a baby in an Ancient Greek vase. Small island elephants around the world went extinct around the time of human arrival, but I wonder, what if they didn’t.

As an extra- I originally set out to do Brine Shrimp, but after much more struggle than I'd anticipated with the animal I ended up tossing the drawing in the end and replacing the prompt. For anyone who enjoys pink-colored brine shrimp, enjoy Brine Shrimp (Artemia monica)

A somewhat-unfinished drawing of two brine shrimp circling each-other. They are pink and yellow with a purple circle behind them.

The Observatory 🐋🌟

A digital painting of a large, round, glass observatory. Out the windows we see whale sharks and manta rays, covered in golden/orange star. In the foreground, a girl is seen painting the whale sharks, and a small orange dog looks up at the scene from the other side of the room

Landback is about governance and stewardship, not European and capitalist notions of ownership. Comparing it to Naziism is the height of settler anxiety, propaganda, and bullshit. Nobody wants to sink to your level guys. Stop projecting.

Anyway. An archaeology break with a thread ! I want you to look at this lovely photo which belongs to the National Museums Northern Ireland. It's a turf travois up in 19th c Glendun. Now zoom on the harness ( welcome to my life ). Notice anything ? It's all straw

A Cushendall pony with a turf creel on a travoise. The harness and traces are all made of straw, plaited. There is an elderly woman standing with a very cute dog, outside a thatched cottage. 19th century photo of the NMNI

Well, don't think I already had enough coffee this morning to comment on Neolithic Snake Wrestling™, but these loincloths (side note: among the figurines known from GöbekliTepe & vicinity, mostly male individuals seem depicted wearing belts) may well be inspired by those #Catalyhöyük murals, fwiw. 🏺

Cover of Ian Hodder's "The Leopard's Tale. Revealing the Mysteries of Catalhöyük" showing the wall painting of an apparently running person (head missing) with a bow and a dotted "thing" flying around their hip.

Reconstruction drawings of several people with dotted pieces of what may be clothing around the hips and backs.

#Archaeology🏺 isn't about dusty old objects in museum showcases - it's about reconstructing and understanding the past people's lives. But to really bring those people back to life, sometimes it takes the pencil, the brush and the virtuosity of a real illustrator.

India has the greatest units the rest of the world doesnt hear enough about. Nilgai is nice, but the great grand daddy of the genre is the scariest cow on the planet. meet the Gaur. It rhymes with power and it rhymes with sour. Yes that is a full sized tourist bus.

Gaur crossing road as bus approaches. Bloody thing is half as tall as the bus. Never fuck with a gaur.

Leaping Balaur bondoc #paleoart for #FossilFriday. This image follows the interpretation that Balaur was an omnivorous bird, not a "double-clawed" dromaeosaur. The skull is unknown, so the head is based on Sapeornis. Originally created for the first @palaeogames.bsky.social book. #sciart

Two bird-like animals leap at one another. Their chests and wings are orange, their necks orange-brown, and their legs white. Feather fans project from their tail base and tail tips. They are surrounded by the bases of trees and framed against a hazy blue-green backdrop. Leaf-litter occupies the base of the image.

Oh look at the time, it's #FossilFriday. This week it's Dimetrodon milleri at the Museum of Comparative Zoology at Harvard. With a stout skull and relatively large orbits, D. milleri is considered the most basal Dimetrodon species and adorable. #paleontology #paleoart #fossil 🧪

The "bluesky is an echo chamber" think pieces that keep popping up really tickle me because they show how certain people genuinely believe social media should be for debating and arguing and not talking about the things that make you happy and sharing art with the world.

The fact that most of us (speaking as a latino myself) don't usually learn in-depth about the majesty of south and mesoamerican pre-columbian cultures in school is depressing. Reading that Tenochtitlan had more people than Paris or London in the 1500's blew my mind as an adult.

The rhinos we have and the ones we lost. In the late Pleistocene, about two thirds of the worlds terrestrial megafauna went extinct. Rhinos fared better than average, but still, all the temperate and cold climate species are gone. Those that remain are endangered and in dire need of protection.
