In this episode of the Paleo Post Podcast, we explore critical issues facing the National Museum of Kenya in Nairobi and the rich history it preserves—now at risk. The museum, home to priceless fossils like those discovered by the Leakey family, is facing serious challenges due to poor funding, deteriorating conditions, and a lack of resources to properly care for these irreplaceable artifacts. But that’s just the beginning of this episode! Hosts Genevieve von Petzinger and Dr. George Nash also dive into fascinating topics such as: • The evolution of early stone tools and what recent discoveries reveal about our ancestors’ cognitive abilities 🔨 • New findings on Neanderthals and their presence in Africa—what does this mean for the human evolutionary timeline? • Dr. George’s latest field updates and the cutting-edge research he’s been involved in, including exciting digs across Europe 🌍 • How the degradation of fossil collections, like those in the Nairobi Museum, threatens to erase critical chapters of our understanding of human evolution With a mix of archaeology, history, and conservation efforts, this episode offers something for everyone interested in the story of humanity’s past. Tune in to hear more about how we can protect our ancient heritage and what you can do to help ensure these fossils are preserved for future generations.
