À propos de ce contenu audio
Jim and a very excited Brenna are joined by our original listener Dr Jennifer Jones to discuss the Archaeology of... Cave Bears. A prehistoric species of bear that went extinct around 25,000 years ago.
Using isotope analysis of Cave Bears from across Europe Jennifer discusses what we know about their ecology and what may have caused their extinction – climate change or modern humans. This leads to the discovery that Brenna’s personal scale works on Lada’s, the old Russian car. Jim goes all hippish and thinks Cave Bears and humans could have been friends and all discuss the merits of Jean Auel’s Clan of the Cave Bear. We also delve into Brenna’s reinterpretation of the ‘lion man’.
The Archaeology of.. is produced by the Archaeology team from the University of Lancashire. It is presented by Drs James Morris and Brenna Hassett. Filming and editing by Mariusz Kuczaj.
