If you mapped the entire span of Earth’s history from its formation to now onto a calendar year, the first humans wouldn’t appear until December 31st. In our 2024 calendar we’re making humans the main character, stretching our evolutionary journey out over 12 months. Start the year with the ancient apes of the Miocene epoch and end with one of the greatest decisions our species ever made: the domestication of the chili pepper.
Each month features a piece of paleo-art from one of our episodes about human evolution, including one new, never-before-seen illustration of an ancient relative of ours! Available now! https://bit.ly/3tKDkeN
