Sphinx Thinks
Sphinx Thinks is the human and natural history podcast, decoding humanity through archaeology, anthropology, and environment.
From our evolutionary origins to the ancient civilisations and innovations that got us where we are today, we'll explore the timeline of our deep past.
I'll be interviewing leading researchers and specialists, to uncover how bones, stones, and the environmental record reveal where we came from, how we lived, and how the world around us shaped everything from our diet and health to our culture and civilisations.

Primates: Cognition, Culture & Environment with Dr Kathelijne Koops
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
Cognition, culture and environment - how do they work together to influence primate behaviour? What can tool use and behavioural patterns tell us about primate society?
Studying primates provides one of the best insights into the evolutionary origins of human behaviours. To truly understand how and why certain behaviours are adopted (and differ) in primate species, a combination of factors must be considered. If you want to learn about tool use, nesting and behavioural patterns, if you want to understand primate culture, then this is the episode for you! Dr Kathelijne Koops and I discuss the impact of the interaction of cognition, culture and environment on primate behaviour - unfolding the stories of our closest living relatives.
