Absolutely blown away to learn about an auroch and the fact that they only disappeared in the last four to five hundred years?! Can you recommend any books for further reading on them specifically?
It's pretty fascinating. I'm not aware of books about aurochsen at the top of my head, but I'll ask around and comment back on this thread if any of my zooarchaeology friends know anything. My blog post has the references we used in some of our research on aurochsen: habitsofatravellingarchaeologist.com/what-can-animal-bones-tell-us-about-life-in-the-past/
@@smitinathan yeah I been a butthole to every other channel today. You're the only one who was doing or conversing about anything not discussed to death or about shit that was new and interesting or hilarious 20 years ago. There's so much stupid the RUclips algorithm shoves down your feed. So I try to comment cause fight the algorithm!
@@smitinathan like I really had to dig around to get out of that algorithm rut. You're like seeing an Island after months in a life boat *redundant and retracted* for months
It can be hard to get the algorithm to adjust to your preferences. I feel you. Thanks for your kind note again. I hope your feed fills with better-fit videos for you soon.
been studying multispecies anthropology recently, its so cool how it fits with zooarcheology in recognising the interrelatedness of the human and non-human in cultural past and present!
The Longhorn cows horn shape always reminds me of their ancestor, as does the big hump on the Brahma cattle. And yeah, I wish a certain political group would admit that we now have armadillo hundreds of miles north of where they used to be... a CLEAR indicator of climate change. Although you don't dig deep into one specific subject, ie shells or the history of the Auroch, like the videos I'd normally like, I really appreciate the source links, and have enjoyed the few videos of yours I've seen. 😊
Thanks so much for your note! We're going to do slightly deeper dives on certain animals in the future. It's wonderful to hear you would like more information. We're constantly experimenting with the levels of breadth and depth in a video.
"Quarter Inch Screen" This was an insult back in the 1980s that my paleontology thesis advisor used to describe archaeologists. I assume things are much better now. But he felt that it was a big mistake that archaeologists back then used 1/4 inch screen to sift site earth. He focused on looking at mice and other "pests" and their teeth and most bones would of course just past through 1/4" screens. I will never forget his distain!
That's a fair critique. Mesh size is a really important consideration. When I do archaeobotanical recovery, I'm using a 250 micron mesh. It helps to find weed seed fragments.
Actually the domestication of cattle occurred first in Turkey due to indo aryan tribes domestication taurin cattle Around the caucasian mountains Then second in India due to the migration of indo aryan tribes into the sub continent of India domesticating Bhrama cattle Then third in Africa due to nubian people around western sudan an Ethiopia domesticating zebu an Ankola cattle Then forth in south east asia domesticating water buffalo and Bali cattle
says an animal went extinct and then explained that they're still around due to selective breeding to make horns smaller, milk produce better and larger meat gains. Truly, a font of information there.
@@GaiaCarney there is a difference between extinction and mutation through elective breeding. An extinction happens when a species fails to adapt to an environment - whether that be a weather based one, new predator arriving or an invasive species. Selective adaptation is a way of producing things through force of choice not environment forcing change. The Auroch is either extinct due to human intervention or it is still alive, it cannot be both.
I find this very interesting. But please don’t talk so fast; it is sometimes difficult to understand you because of this. Also, don’t move your hands so much; it’s a distraction.
Your content is genuinely dynamic and mentally stimulating. I thoroughly enjoyed the experience
Thank you so much for the kind comment ♥️
@@smitinathan I think you deserve more but some issues may blocking your growth.
im obsessed with your videos!
Thank you for your kind note :)
Your content is so professional and insightful, I'm shocked about how underrated you are ☹️
Thanks for the kind note ☺️

@@smitinathan very much appreciated, thank you so much!
I love these videos so much. I just wish they were longer lol
Thanks for your feedback!
ANIMAL INFO!!! I love it this is my favourite xD to marks on bones giving us info is making me wanna watch Bones again!!!
Thanks so much! That reminds me, we should think about a forensic anthropology video :)
I’m fascinated by the ancient flute made from a cave bear shin bone!
love youre content you deserve more views
Thank you for your kind note :) I appreciate it!
I subbed. Cause I like you
Thank you! It's appreciate :)

Well done, you are on a great track with your videos!
Thanks so much Oliver! I appreciate it :)
I’m here after watching your fantastic knitting video! Thanks @smitinathan ⭐️
Thanks so much Gaia! I appreciate it :)

Love your videos! And your eyelashes look good girl!

Ok, the wild ancestral aurochs is long extinct. The domestic cattle breeds have been developed away from the body build of distant ancestors.

Wolfs and dogs dumass, cattle are not the same as what Aurokes wore, they wore huge absolutely pissedoff and are all dead
The wild auroch is very extinct. It’s domesticated descendants live on. Like how ‘modern’ wolves have extinct ancestors.

She said « sheeps » again, gracious ! Great content , but it’s one sheep , two sheep , one fish , two fish sweetie ♥️

You're welcome to slow down the playback speed of the video if the uploaded speed doesn't work for you. Hope that helps.
@smitinathan I'm glad you didn't take this to heart. Your speed and hand motions are totally fine!!!
