Just found out I didn’t get another grant I applied for. Disappointed, but still motivated to keep pushing forward. If anyone knows of opportunities (grants, contracts, collaborations, preferably in Portugal/Spain), I’d be very grateful for any leads. #Funding #Research

How did Europe’s last hunter-gatherer-fisher communities bury their dead?
New excavations at the #Mesolithic site of Cabeço da Amoreira (Portugal) uncover 3 non-adult burials, shedding light on funerary practices, childhood, and life 8,000 years ago.

Their burial is one of the most elaborate ever found in the Muge shell mounds. What made it so special? 🐚🧵
