Hey Sammi :D
May I just say again that I love this series of yours! It is just that you manage to break down all this information about our ancestors in bite-sizes, making them really easy to digest and put in perspective!
My favorite part of this post is Our Brain vs. Their Brain (surprise, surprise!) But, first of all, I had never hear of these guys before: pithecanthropus. Well, learning that the brain of the Neanderthals was bigger than ours and that they must have buried their dead was the highlight of this article for me :)
All the best to you & much love always my dear Sammi :*
Thanks a lot for the kind words Abbey.
Having a historian as a mum would definitely make anyone to tilt towards history. That explains my interests in evolution :)
It's even disheartening that our brains have been shrinking more recently than ever. Well, we've got to blame that on technology though.
Thanks Abbey, I'm honoured. I've started up a piece to debunk some perceived misconceptions about evolution. I'll drop it as soon as I'm done.
Much love from here
