Paleolithic politician

21. December 2006, 3:07 UhrUncategorizedmreades

I just received from one of my anthropological colleagues a picture of what we are certain is the first set of skeletal remains of a politician from the Paleolithic era. It’s amazing how little things have changed over the past 10,000-15,000 years.

    I love it! Thanks. Any chance you could make a high res version available? The higher the better, I would love to turn it into a poster! Thanks again.

    Hi George–

    I got it from someone in an email.  It came as a bmp file that I had to covert to a jpeg to post with this software.  I don’t know if bmp files contain greater resolution or not.  If so, I’ll be happy to send it to you that way.

    Cheers–

    Surely the head is the wrong way up?

    :D

    Have a great Christmas!

    Best wishes

    Hi Annabel–

    No, the head is as it is.  A politician can even screw that up.

    Have a Merry Christmas down under.

    Cheers–
