An earlier review of 2022 studies on life. Social structure according to looks like with moving out of groups.

We are close to ๐Ÿ’ฏ per cent certain that did the exact opposite -- daughters stayed with their mums, and sons-in-law came into the group to do . We are so sure here because it's what do. As a result, our lineage flourishes (thanks to grandmothers), Neanderthals dwindled (lack of grandmothers?) and numerous Neanderthal women could have moved into the incoming African origin groups.

I know and love the author Helen Nde, who runs @MythicAfricans -- about the best thing on wretched twitter. https://x.com/MythicAfricans

Caught up with her yesterday on her visit from America. She is a brilliant, clear-sighted person, seeking fundamental knowledge and wisdom from the voice of communities, told in this . For anyone with interest in story, folklore, her collection will be wonderful, a key primer into the area. She has true storytelling skills and scholarship.

It was so educational to get her original perspectives on classical art's use of mythology, and what a powerful vehicle myth and story are. She herself is a skilled artist who tried pointillist techniques!
