REFRESHER: The "Mane" Event with Dr. William Taylor - Ep 154

View on Zencastr

For this week we are re-releasing Episode 80 - The “Mane” Event with Dr. William Taylor. Why? Well we will soon be releasing another episode with Dr. Taylor where we will be discussing his recently published article in Science titled: Early dispersal of domestic horses into the Great Plains and northern Rockies.

For this episode, we are joined again by Dr. William Taylor, who first appeared on the podcast in episode 25. We start out by discussing Dr. Taylor's COVID experience as a new professor and how his museum projects had to change to adapt to the new COVID landscape. We then delve into the research surrounding the Lehi horse. Dr. Taylor explains his methods of analysis and how they can be used to tell us about individual specimens, while also contributing to the larger discipline. We then talk about his research on early horse domestication at the Botai site.
