Nomadism, Abundance, and the Desire for Innocence: Rethinking Life Outside the State

🌿 What if the #nomadic life of hunter-gatherers, celebrated by #Scott, #Sahlins, #Harari, and #Adorno, was the true #society of #abundance? Less #work, more #freedom, rejection of #accumulation, #resilience in the face of #collapse: #nomadism inspires a new path for tomorrow. #Anthropology #philosophy #climate Human history is not simply a relentless march toward the State,…

Archaeologists Unearth 2,500-Year-Old Ice Maiden with One of the Earliest Recorded Tattoos

In 1993, Russian archaeologist Dr. Natalia Polosmak led a groundbreaking excavation on the Ukok Plateau, a region that spans across Russia, Mongolia, China, and Kazakhstan and is known for its harsh climate and layers of permafrost. This excavation centered around a burial mound, or kurgan, that had been untouched for over 2,500 years.
Inside the mound, the research team discovered the remarkably preserved remains of a woman, laid to rest in a wooden coffin and surrounded by elaborate burial artifacts. The frigid environment of the area played a crucial role in preserving her skin, hair, and clothing. Numerous items were found at the site, including textiles, tools, and six horses equipped with saddles and bridles, indicative of her high social status.
One of the most fascinating aspects of the Ice Maiden was her detailed tattoos, which are among the earliest known and have been exceptionally well-preserved due to the permafrost.

'Wild Service--the Human Right to Roam'

Harry Jenkinson will present the concept of Wild Service: a philosophy of reciprocity with our fellow species, made possible through increased human access to nature.

Humans are a nomadic species. For over 95% of our history, we have lived as nomadic hunter-gatherers, with nomadism central to understandings of ecological balance. But when we are politically and culturally restricted from nature, we become unable to take care of it. The Right to Roam movement, to which Harry belongs, calls for public access to the English countryside, 92% of which is inaccessible.

Looking at mobility and ecological reciprocity among Indigenous peoples today, Harry will discuss inspirations for Wild Service and draw upon his ethnographic work among Indigenous peoples in the Arctic.

Wild Service offers a renewal of relationships, where we recognise humanity as part of, rather than separate from nature.

Harry will be LIVE in the Daryll Forde, 2nd Floor, UCL Anthropology Dept, 14 Taviton St, WC1H 0BW.
