🏛️🧬 Researchers found that the Durotriges tribe of ancient #Dorset practiced a social system called matrilocality.

Their analysis of 50 ancient genomes shows that women stayed within their home communities while men moved to join their wives' families. The discovery supports historical accounts of powerful British queens and implies that land and status were inherited through maternal lines.

Genetic record for domestic dogs pushed back by 5,000 years

“Researchers have identified the earliest known dog genomes, which push the genetic record for #dogs back by more than 5,000 years.

They recovered these genomes from remains of between 14,000 and 16,000 years old found at #archaeology sites that span Europe and the Middle East.”

Archaeologists have found a fragment of a jawbone which detailed DNA analysis has determined it to be from a dog. This bone essentially rewrite history as to when dogs became man's best friends. It shows that dogs first came to live with humans 15,000 years ago, much earlier than farm animals or cats. Dogs evolved from grey wolves but over time through breeding changed into a distinct breed. bbc.co.uk/news/articles/cn0ky1…

Dogs were man's best friend far earlier than thought - scientists

A jawbone found in a Somerset cave rewrites the story of when and how dogs became our best friends.

Experten arbeiten an der Stabilisierung der antiken Strukturen gegen Witterung und Erdbeben, doch Fortschritte gehen quälend langsam voran. Verrostetes Gerät aus vergangenen Jahrzehnten steht herum (wirkt nun selbst fast historisch) und verdeutlicht mir die Herausforderung, das Erbe für kommende Generationen zu bewahren.
