Why this Ice Age Bone Needle is so Important. - Ep 09
In this episode of Ethnocynology, David highlights a recent paper published about a bone needle he helped excavate in the summer of 2022.
While David wasn't an author on the paper, he was there when it was excavated, recorded the moment, and recently conducted interviews with the two leading authors of the paper.
David discusses how he read a comment on his post about the needle that made him stop to think about how important such a small item could be to people on the ice age plains.
David discusses how to read an academic paper, while conducting interviews with the researchers into the podcast.
