Among the many Neanderthal sites known worldwide, Shanidar Cave stands out as one of the most extraordinary places for exploring Neanderthal behaviour.

Known since the mid-20th century, this cave in Iraqi Kurdistan has yielded an exceptional concentration of Neanderthal remains. Particularly remarkable is an area where several individuals were buried in the same place, not simultaneously, but at different moments in time. These burials were located beside a large upright rock, a prominent feature of the cave that may have held special significance for these Neanderthal groups. Generation after generation, they returned to this same place to bury their dead.

Shanidar is therefore a key site for understanding Neanderthal funerary behaviour. But recent excavations are revealing much more than what happened after death. They are also offering new insights into what may have happened just before death.
And once again, trauma plays a central role in the story.

A remarkable penetrating injury in the scapula of Shanidar A provides evidence of an encounter with a wooden weapon, raising fascinating questions about the circumstances surrounding this individual’s death. Was this an act of interpersonal violence? Or could it have been the result of a hunting accident?

We may never know exactly what happened. But what makes this story particularly compelling is that Shanidar A, despite this evidence of a potentially violent episode, was also buried in a place where other members of the group had been laid to rest.
Having had the opportunity to study these remains and contribute to our understanding of such extraordinary fossils, alongside an equally extraordinary team of researchers, has been a true privilege.

Here’s to many more years of research, discoveries, and collaboration with our colleagues at the University of Cambridge!

EUROPE AT A CROSSROADS: INSIDE THE CRUCIAL EU SUMMIT IN BRUSSELS

European Union leaders are gathering in Brussels for a crucial two-day European Council summit on October 15–16, amid mounting geopolitical tensions and economic uncertainty.

From energy prices and Europe’s economic competitiveness to trade tensions with China, continued support for Ukraine, defence preparedness and migration, the summit’s agenda reflects the growing challenges facing the 27-member bloc.

Leaders are also discussing the EU’s long-term budget, European security and the future direction of the Union.

I’m reporting from Brussels on the key discussions, political fault lines and decisions that could shape Europe’s future.

Exactly a week ago REDMIX wrapped its trip to Tunis.
We wanted to take this opportunity to thank all our partners and panelists who made another edition of the Atelier DE LA MER ROUGE
À LA MER BLANCHE possible.
We had the pleasure of sharing our lines of research with scholars and students of the “two seas” while adding an important new angle to our endeavors.

Besides the interesting insights from other shores we all shared, we also watched and commented two documentaries: “Siciliani d’Africa. Tunisia Terra Promessa” by bivonamarcello and @campisialfonso & “In My Mother’s House” by Lina Fruzzetti. And @adnenelghali and @fdragonevideo presented “Gedda Sposa del Mar Rosso e Crogiolo di Diversità”@bidiotunis

We are grateful for the group which sparked from these seeds and the many collaborations we laid the ground for in a few days.

With this long list that follows we want to acknowledge the tremendous collective effort which made for a very successful II edition of this Atelier.
See you next year Tunis!

Let’s sail to other shores now!

🧠 La salud mental perinatal no necesita solo que hablemos de ella. Necesita que escuchemos a quienes la viven.

Hoy, 10 de octubre, es el Día Mundial de la Salud Mental. Este año, la campaña internacional pone el foco en las experiencias vividas y en la importancia de que las personas participen en las decisiones que afectan a su salud.

En salud mental perinatal, esto también significa escuchar a las mujeres durante el embarazo y el posparto. No solo preguntarles cómo están, sino comprender sus experiencias, reconocer sus necesidades e incorporar sus voces a la investigación, la prevención y la atención.

🔬 La evidencia científica es imprescindible. Pero para construir recursos útiles y accesibles también necesitamos conocer la realidad de quienes los utilizarán.

Desde ePerinatal, trabajamos para acercar la investigación a la práctica y contribuir a una atención en salud mental perinatal más informada, accesible y sensible a las necesidades de las mujeres y sus familias.

Porque escuchar es el comienzo. Incorporar esas voces a las decisiones es lo que puede generar cambios.

This Neanderthal infant, buried around 60.000 years ago in Amud Cave, was found with its bones in anatomical connection, an exceptional state of preservation for such fragile remains. On its tiny pelvis appeared something even more striking: the maxilla of a red deer.

But this little skeleton has revealed even more. Stay tuned for more next week!

Continuamos con la serie de extractos de las investigaciones presentadas en el Congreso Internacional «Cuerpo danzante: archivo, imaginario y transculturalidad del Romanticismo a la modernidad».

En esta ocasión, presentamos la investigación de José Luis Bolívar (Universidad de Granada): «Cuerpos danzantes entre paredes de encaje de amatista, oro y cobre: imaginarios de “lo español” en la pintura alhambrista (1860-1910)».

La ponencia explora la construcción de los imaginarios de «lo español» en la pintura alhambrista entre 1860 y 1910, atendiendo a las representaciones del cuerpo danzante y a su relación con los espacios, la ornamentación y los repertorios visuales asociados a la Alhambra. Una aproximación a las conexiones entre danza, pintura e identidad cultural en el contexto artístico del siglo XIX.

▶️ Ya disponible en nuestro canal de YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AzDAdJ5zQn4

Cada viernes compartiremos nuevos extractos de las conferencias del congreso.

Dal silenzio alla restituzione. Ricostruzione storica e pratiche di riattivazione.
Lecture di Gianpaolo Chiriacò e Valentina Fusari.

Curata dal Collettivo Andemta insieme a Gianpaolo Chiriacò e Valentina Fusari, la mostra nasce da un lavoro di ricerca dedicato a una collezione di oltre duecento registrazioni di musiche tradizionali del Corno d’Africa, realizzate durante l’occupazione italiana dell’Etiopia (1936–1941) e poi andate perdute allo scoppio della Seconda guerra mondiale. Dopo novant’anni, queste registrazioni sono state ricostruite e rese nuovamente accessibili. Attraverso un percorso multisensoriale, la mostra propone una riflessione critica sulle pratiche di raccolta, conservazione e restituzione dei patrimoni sonori, offrendo al pubblico la possibilità di ascoltare e contestualizzare materiali di grande valore storico e culturale.

A cura di @arci_torino e Unione culturale.
In collaborazione con @ancresistenza .
