SUMMARY:Living in Yucatan in the Late Pleistocene Life history and origins of Naia
DESCRIPTION:
 The skeleton of Naia, a 15-16 years old female 
 who inhabited the Yucatan Peninsula, is among 
 the oldest and best-preserved in the Americas 
 and has been the focus of extensive study. 
 Her remains were recovered in 2014-2016 from 
 the bottom of a sinkhole near Tulum (Quintana 
 Roo, Mexico), where she had fallen to her death 
 about 13,000 years age. This talk will highlight 
 the newest analyses, which provide insights 
 from her dentition into her diet, health 
 and lifestyle, as well as inform current 
 debates over the origins of Late Pleistocene 
 Paleoindian groups from the New World.\n\n
