Neanderthals with gnawed bones, Sicicillian Wine and the Human Diet - Ep 123
This week on The Archaeology show, we discuss 3 recently published Archaeology Articles and stories in the news. First, Neanderthals are back in the news, again! It seems like there is something new about Neanderthals, and this time it is the discovery of 9 individuals with gnawed bones found in an Italian cave. Second, new research uses chemistry to identify beer and wine residue in ancient Sicilian jars. And finally, new research looking at the diet composition of ancient humans, as compared with modern humans.
