I am moving on and today is my last day in @UniKentSAC (as was). From Monday I will be moving to @KMMSmedschool where I’ll be teaching future doctors the ways of evolutionary anthropology and human sexuality (among other things). An exciting new start!

Recommended read, cautioning about assuming history began in 1950 & “reading history sideways”: “Apart from a few decades in 1800s, the only time since 1550 that the average age of first marriage for women fell below 24 was during the 1950s/60s baby boom” campop.geog.cam.ac.uk/blog/2…

New paper (likely one of final few from Anthropology at Kent ☹️) on a novel method for estimating adult sex through metric pelvic scar analysis, using a known skeletal sample! By Georgina Ives, @DrSarahJohns and Chris Deter

Kent VC leaving just six weeks after announcing multiple course closures, with no succession plan in place, and acting like this is all normal. This is the leadership for which VCs are claiming hundreds of thousands of pounds in salary, is it? Shameful. kentonline.co.uk/canterbury/…

This is what’s keeping me going - there is a tremendous Kent Anthropology legacy out there……I have to remember I made a difference.

So much of what that department gave will live on in the alumni and the networks it created. Its closure is beyond comprehension. It was unique and special. Thank you all.

Anthropology is closing at Kent. We were unsuccessful in persuading management to retain this diverse and dynamic subject area. This spells the end for Social Anthropology, Biological Anthropology and Ethnobotany. Done.

Important read for evolutionary behavioural scientists👇 Highlights use of evo psychology in the manosphere & makes recommendations for countering this eg using careful language in journal articles & engaging with popular use of evo research thru debunking cambridge.org/core/journals/…
