This is super exciting!🤩
It may be a bit "inside baseball," but I'm wildly excited about the promise of palaeoproteomics -- not quite as much info as DNA, but can give us info from millions of years ago. This new paper out today shows they were able to figure out biological sex of an A. africanus specimen (2-3.5myo). 🏺🧪
In a 1st, ancient proteins reveal sex of human relative from 3.5 million years ago
Researchers have extracted ancient proteins from australopithecine fossils and determined whether they were male or female — a first for human evolution studies.

Really interesting discovery at the Newberry Library, where one of their Nahuatl-language manuscripts turns out to have been made using by far the largest known example of a pre-Columbian Mesoamerica paper technology known as maguey paper: www.newberry.org/news/analysi... #paperhistory
Manuscript is Most Extensive Example of Maguey Paper in Existence
A collection of sermons by sixteenth-century Franciscan missionary Bernardino de Sahagún is rare example from the Nahuas.
