PinGGG!......................

As a sloppy, rough guess, didn’t they traditionally look at teeth? They indicate when someone suddenly doesn’t get sufficient calcium.

[ClearCase_guy]

Well, fine. But do they know if the skeleton was male or female? Are there any biologists on the team?

[jerod]

They can determine whether a skeleton is male or female... No trans skeletons yet... And none will ever be unearthed.

[MayflowerMadam]

Unfortunate title. 😵‍💫😁

[zeestephen]

How long before our corrupt universities and government agencies start finding male skeletons that were pregnant?

[llevrok]

would the skeletons be promised abortion on demand?

[TangoLimaSierra]

Evidently, it is the presence of ice cream and pickle juice in the teeth.

Bill Clinton’s family tree traced?.

A long time ago, in an unwoke galaxy far, far away, I had the opportunity for my first archaeology excavation experience. It took place in the San Francisco Bay Area. The site ONLY had male skeletons. Some people guessed that it might have been some sort of “hunting lodge.” One day, a very young skull full of mush, and a “journalism” student, happened to be present, and one of the graduate students decided to have some fun with this person. They concocted the “first Indigenous gay village” discovery. The graduate student used all of the high faluting “scientific” phraseology from every archaeology lecture they could remember. The ‘journalism’ student took copious notes. When the professor on-site heard what was going on, he took the young ‘journalist’ aside and informed her that she could not publish, report any of her pages and pages of notes. She was flabbergasted. When she insisted, and asked ‘why’ the professor explained all of the fun the graduate student was having, and that none of it was true.

Way fun.

Today, the grandkids of the budding ‘journalist’ would probably publish such trash, and call it: Fake, But Accurate

WOW ! I was just wondering the other day if there is any way possible to tell if 1000 year old skeletal remains were at anytime in their existence were ever pregnant.

Now you can sleep at night................

[redfreedom]

In another article elsewhere it said this same skeleton got pregnant 500 years ago. So I guess it must be true.

Now THAT is a really important use of research monies. /s

Its TOO LATE to save the baby.

My harpsichord professor described our instruments as the sound of two skeletons copulating on a tin roof.

I suppose pregnant skeletons could result.

Parturition scarring on the pubic symphesis, though there’s argument about it.

And, boy, didn’t the above raise heck with my spell check. =8-0

[mewzilla]

Aaaargh.

Pubic symphysis...

[gitmo]

OK. That’s better than what I was going to post.

LOL.

[SunkenCiv]

I never touched her.
