💁🏻‍♀️ TIL: Researchers traveled to remote #Boé National Park in #GuineaBissau to study accumulative stone throwing, a rare behavior where male western #chimpanzees repeatedly hurl #rocks at specific #trees while calling out and drumming. 🌳

The team used camera traps to gather #data on what these chimpanzees might be communicating, and whether the behavior is a form of #animal #culture. Some sites have been used for over a decade. 🐒

Why do male chimpanzees throw rocks at the same trees for more than a decade? We travelled to remote Guinea-Bissau to find out

To study accumulative stone throwing among wild chimpanzees, researchers hike deep into the savanna-woodland of Boé — a habitat increasingly threatened by industrial mining.

“Archaeological studies have found evidence of #asbestos being used as far back as the #StoneAge to strengthen ceramic pots, but large-scale mining began at the end of the 19th century when manufacturers and builders began using asbestos for its desirable physical properties.”

New uranium-thorium dates from a deer rib place China’s Lingjing site 20,000 years deeper in time, squarely in an ice age. The sophisticated stone tools found there weren’t made during good times. #Paleoanthropology #HumanEvolution #StoneAge https://www.anthropology.net/p/the-crystals-in-the-bone-changed
The Crystals in the Bone Changed Everything at Lingjing

A new date for one of China’s most important Paleolithic sites places sophisticated stone tools not in warm interglacial plenty, but in the teeth of an ice age.
