New episode of Anthropology Profile! In this episode, I discuss handicaps and disabilities visible in the archaeological and fossil record of humans and examine if that savage "caveman" stereotype is actually warranted or not. Hope you enjoy! My apologies for the downgraded microphone/audio this episode, my usual microphone is missing right now, but hopefully by next video it will be back. Also sorry for the extended wait my bad!
