Un prima e dopo così non l'avete mai visto: lui è Rakus, un maschio di orango di Sumatra che vive in Indonesia. E si è "medicato" la ferita con una poltiglia di piante masticate: si tratta di automedicazione? è intenzionale? Alle 11.30 con @bettapalagi @Unipisa, e poi #MuseodeiFuturi

Se puede meter a @davidgraeber y @davidwengrow y el Cristo del Gran Poder en una charla sobre la subsistencia en el Paleolítico inferior y la Academia? Sí, se puede.
Gracias al @AHEADmeeting_ por invitarme a pasarlo bien.
