The Anthropology team visited the excavation site at Barnham, Suffolk last week. An incredibly rich Lower Palaeolithic site with Clactonian archaeology, flora, and fauna, telling us about the lives of Middle Pleistocene Britons.
We are thrilled to support Dr. Kay Behrensmeyer's amazing project with the @museumsofkenya and the Smithsonian. This taphonomy teaching collection will have a large impact, and we are proud to be part of it!
Today the inventor of bone weathering stages, Kay Behrensmeyer @behrensakb, gave an impromptu short talk on her method of documenting how long bones have been weathering to NMK Osteology staff as part of our @TheLeakeyFndtn-funded taphonomy project at the @museumsofkenya 🤩❤️🦴

What a privilege to have taken part in some of the recent fieldwork at Shanidar Cave, and to see the amazing work of my colleagues showcased in this documentary. I cannot wait to be back in the Zagros mountains for this year's field season! bbc.co.uk/news/science-e…

Incredibly busy night on Wednesday for 'Valentine's at the Museum'. Our Anthropology Scientists [Emma Bird, Lucile Créte, and Karen Swan] met hundreds of couples and chatted all things love, pair-bonding, and mating across the world of primates.
Brilliant time with Karen Swan discussing 'Love, bonding, and mating behaviours in primates' with visitors at the Natural History Museum for this Valentine's day after-hours event.



Join our Anthropology Scientists at the after-hours event 'Valentine's at the Museum'. Explore 'The Origins of Human Love: Pair-bonding in Primate and Human Groups' and 'Tinder: Human-Neanderthal Interbreeding in the Age of Fire' at our Science Stations nhm.ac.uk/events/valenti…
