The assumption has long been that only the genus #Homo was capable of making stone tools. Finding the molars of #Paranthropus changes everything.

Previously enigmatic pit structures in the Khangai Mountains (central Mongolia) were, at least partly, military settlements or garrisons of the Qing period (1636-1911), as an international team led by #ClusterRoots member Henny Piezonka now writes in @Antiquity
The findings are based on #excavations in 2019, made possible by the #GerdaHenkelStiftung and by the #ClusterofExcellence ROOTS: https://www.cluster-roots.uni-kiel.de/en/publications/other-publications-by-roots-member/enigmatic-pit-structures-in-mongolia-identified-as-permanent-settlements-from-the-qing-era #archaeology @archaeodons
