“Ceremony,” she said, “has such a huge part to play in implementing fire.”

Ancient Sahara: women in a great rock art tradition. I've made this entire visual talk open access, because the ancient Saharan paintings are important, yet little known. Algeria, Tunisia, Libya, Chad, Niger, many of these masterpieces are 6000 years old and more. youtu.be/XYMSNPC0bes?...
