  2. Carved Reindeer Size: H:3cm, W: 20.7cm, D:2.7cm Material: mammoth tusk Age: 13 000 years old http://www.britishmuseum.org/research/collection_online/collection_object_details/collection_image_gallery.aspx?assetId=33738001&objectId=808748&partId=1

  3. Interpretation • “The artist has depicted the reindeer as they look in autumn. At this time of year the meat, skin and antlers are at their best for use as food, clothing and materials for making equipment. Showing the reindeer swimming may suggest migration or a moment when the animals were easy prey for their human hunters. Was this sculpture a means of communicating with the supernatural world or a charm to guarantee a successful hunt at the start of a bitterly cold Ice Age winter?” British Museum BBC A History of the World, Swimming Reindeer, 2013, http://www.bbc.co.uk/ahistoryoftheworld/objects/DyfP6g6dRN6WdwdnbIVbPw (Feb. 2, 2013).

  4. Red • Why are some of the passages highlighted in red? • What is different about them?

  5. Annotate Paleo Reading • interact and react to what you’re reading by marking up the page appropriately • this is more than highlighting, circling and underlining key words • use arrows to connect things • once you are familiar with HTCs you can connect text passages to different HTCs • imagine that annotating is meant to help you study for a test or exam – instead of reading everything over again, you have already indicated what is super important on each page by annotating it

  6. PERSIAT • Political • Economic • Religious • Social (cultural) • Intellectual • Artistic • Technological
