Erica Palmer, Marie Capps and Brian Kemp, researchers from @OU_LMAMR, contributed to a study of Alaska archaeological sites 7,000 years old and older. This study found that ancient Alaskans were freshwater fishers. 🎣 bit.ly/3NLYIrp

Research featuring colleagues @OU_LMAMR: How a Giant Short-Faced Bear Reached The California Channel Islands ou.edu/cas/news-updates/2020…

#OUResearch led by @OU_LMAMR led to the unexpected discovery of an isolated short-faced bear toe bone from California’s Channel Islands. ou.edu/cas/news-updates/2020…
Replying to @NMNH
While collecting archaeological evidence in 1996, scientists found the first evidence of a bear on the islands – a single toe bone in a cave. But no bears had ever previously been known to have lived on the Channel Islands, so scientists thought it might be from another animal.

Ever since our Sears closed our archaeologists have had a really difficult time shopping for clothes.

Tomorrow, Aug. 25 all CN social media accounts will be in the Cherokee language, either in Cherokee syllabary or in its spoken form. This is in honor of the single largest contributor to the Cherokee language since Sequoyah, Durbin Feeling, who’s funeral service is tomorrow. Wado
