Pacific Paleontology was recently called out to one of our paleo mitigation contract sites with the message that "bones have been found"!! We excitedly arrived only to find this! Neither paleontological nor archeological these bones, which were inadvertently moved from their original positions by the construction crew, are from a modern (Recent) Mule deer, Odocoileus hemionus and so not of historical importance for our team. #paleontology, #SantaCruz, #santacruzcounty, #Monterey, #montereycounty, #paleontology, #mitigationpaleontology, #fossil, #pacificpaleontology, @pacificpaleontology, #Constructionsite, #fossilhunting, #archeology, #bones,

I taught about austalopithecines in so many of my anthropology courses. Once, I even taught a 2-year old how to pronounce it. And walking toddlers the importance of a locking knee joint and location of the foramen magnum. Of course I shared this with my college students! They learned too, quickly, how to pronounce it. Hopefully the other stuff too.😁 Still, one of my favorite topics. #Lucy #australopithecines #anthropology
November marks the 50th anniversary of the discovery of the Australopithecus afarensis skeleton “Lucy.” She is referenced in the #GSABulletin article “Paleoenvironments of the earliest stone toolmakers, Gona, Ethiopia,” by Jay Quade and colleagues, at https://lnkd.in/gbpgpspf. #Paleontology #Ethiopia #Paleoanthropology #GSAPubs University of Arizona Geosciences Case Western Reserve University School of Medicine Photo from the paleontological collections of the National Museum of Ethiopia, CC-BY-NC.
