Welcome again Cave Dwellers, and Hello to any newcomers. On this 1st episode of another two-part episode, we talk to Alan Van Arsdale. Alan has been a Multiregionalist since 1980, he will explain what that title means in this episode. University of California education in geology and vertebrate paleontology (Neogene terrestrial vertebrates), again, Alan will explain what this refers to. We discuss Alans time in the field of Sedimentary Geology and the New Genus of Hedge Hog and Camel that Alan helped discover, as well as a new species of Horse Alan helped in discovering. We talk about his time in field paleontology, human evolution, and taphonomy. We get in to, The work of one of Alans mentors, C Loring Brace (deceased last year), as well as a discussion on Alans new book “Human Fossil Record and Classification”, and sssooo much more. As you can see Cave Dwellers, we will cover A LOT of info in this half, and the second half due out next week, of my conversation with Alan Van Arsdale. So, as my saying goes, sit back relax and enjoy the show Cave Dwellers. I’ll see you on the flip side.
Phew, what a conversation, ssssooo much info laid out there for you Cave Dwellers. I want to Thank Alan for sticking around longer than the 30 minutes I ask, as well as all the other guests I have Interviewed to this point that gave their personal time up to The Neanderthal Mind to help and make this podcast, something I hope my Community loves. So, Cave Dwellers, I would love to hear from you about how you feel the podcast is going. Is it what you were expecting? Are there things I can do differently to make this any better? If I don’t hear from you, I can only assume that I am giving you what you want from The Neanderthal Mind. I will take all criticism that you give, and try to mold the show to your liking, but, I can’t promise I will be able to do everything, everyone wants me to do, so please, email the show at theneanderthalmind@gmail.com, and go to the somewhat of a website theneanderthalmind.com, and leave me some messages.
