HSS! This image came from 'out back' of an abandoned vacation cottage at Elkmont, located in the Great Smoky Mountains National Park.
I was musing on my fascination with old abandoned places and came upon this definition and I decided that photography is my cultural anthropology.
Cultural anthropology is the comparative study of the manifold ways in which people make sense of the world around them.

People say that man is close to monkey... I know some of them who are closer than others.
On affirme que l'homme descend du singe... J'en connais certains qui sont descendus moins vite que d'autres.
The collection of General Pitt Rivers, some 22,000 items of anthropological importance donated to the University of Oxford in 1884 and grown on by them to about half a million items. Oh my word! this place is hard to describe, an Aladdin's Cave perhaps, a treasure store certainly. When he reopened it in 2009 after a refurbishment, the great Sir David Attenborough (national treasure himself!) said that he loved it because the emphasis is placed on the items, not the labels, it makes you look and wonder and work it out. I agree, though by the time we left my head felt overloaded. It is a shame that the landings are obscured by more displays but I guess there is a lot to fit into one room. Best viewed small as this is a very grainy image. With thanks to the Green Album who pointed me in the direction of this delight!
This students is an example of modern man or woman. They are in a very special category and apparently have the ability to change gender at will. A type of metamorphisis we assume.

Taken with my Miranda Sensorex, free styled this roll. Meaning I didn't use a light meter I just guessed.
The Atapuerca Mountains is an ancient karstic region of Spain, It contains several caves, where fossils and stone tools of the earliest known Hominins in West Europe have been found, belonging to the species Homo antecessor (or Homo erectus antecessor) and Homo heidelbergensis. The earliest hominids may have dated to 1.2 million years ago, representing the first in Western Europe. "The Archeological Site of Atapuerca" has been designated a UNESCO World Heritage Site.
A book is a version of the world. If you do not like it, ignore it; or offer your own version in return.

That was the immediate verdict of the scholars in mid-19th century seeing a Neanderthal's skull. In fact, homo neanderthalensis had a brain larger than ours, but less frontal lobes. Where did the brain growth go into? It seems into those areas having to do with emotions and social connectivity. Neanderthal man and woman may have been rather social and tender beings. They received homo sapiens sapiens (us) with open arms - literally. About 3% of our genes (with the exception of the Africans) come from the Neanderthals. They were probably good people to party with. Therefore I gave this skull (Museum of Natural History NYC) some psychedelic extra color. Apologies to the community of prehistorians.
