SUMMARY:Grandmothers and Human Evolution
DESCRIPTION:  \nGrandmothers contribute to our big brains\, obsession with reputations\, and the cultural construction of our daily lives. Evolutionary anthropologist Dr. Kristen Hawkes will share her research that shows that grandmothers are not only vital to child rearing and cooperation\, but also to forming interdependent economies. Hawkes uses insights into our ancestors’ behavior revealed by her work with modern hunter-gatherer groups\, such as the Hadza people of Tanzania who live primarily by hunting and harvesting wild foods. \nPresented in partnership with the Houston Museum of Natural Science. \nSponsored by:The Brown Foundation\, Inc.Ann and Gordon GettyCamilla and George Smith

SUMMARY:Living on the Edge: Neanderthals and Denisovans in Central Asia
DESCRIPTION:Buy Tickets Now! \nGeneral Admission: $15\nLeakey Foundation: $12 \nCentral Asia and Siberia have for a long time played a very limited role in discussions of modern human origins. These areas were seen as peripheral to our story\, which was thought to have mostly unfolded in Africa\, Europe\, and Eastern Asia. This story\, however\, is starting to change. \nOver the last few years\, new research is yielding evidence that Central Asia—particularly the Altai Mountains—was hardly the periphery but a hub of interaction for a variety of different hominin groups\, from early modern humans and Neanderthals to the enigmatic Denisovans\, a group only known from a few fragmentary fossils and their DNA. \nIn this lecture\, Dr. Viola will share how ancient DNA and archaeological and morphological data are advancing our understanding of how these groups interacted—biologically\, geographically\, and culturally. \nThis event is presented in partnership by The Leakey Foundation and the California Academy of Sciences. \nSponsored by:\nCamilla and George Smith\nAnn and Gordon Getty
