Podcasts about Piltdown Man

Today we're reviewing two films from a brutal, primitive time in humanity's past, when both politics and romance were conducted through violence: the early 20th Century! His Prehistoric Past (1914) and Clubs are Trump (1917) follow suspiciously similar plots in which Silent Era stars Charlie Chaplin, Harold Lloyd, and Snub Pollard dream of a simpler time when they could commit violent assaults unimpeded and sexually harass women.

In the late 19th/early 20th centuries the competition to find fossils of human's ancient relatives (and, for some, to prove racial superiority) was so fierce that one man went to great heights (or, rather, depths) to get his name in the annals of paleontological history. Charles Dawson did end up making a name for himself, just not the one he was hoping for.

On this week's episode of Local Legends, Martin gathers round the campfire with the author of Hampshire and Isle of Wight Folk Tales Mike O'Leary.Mike has been a professional storyteller since 1995, and across the last almost 30 years has developed a real expertise in the folklore of Hampshire.Based in Southampton, a city which he's studied academically, as a Geographer, Mike has led a rich life that has seen him travel, live, and work, all over the UK.He's written several books, including Hampshire and Isle of Wight Folk Tales, Hampshire and Isle of Wight Ghost Tales, Hampshire Folk Tales for Children, Sussex Folk Tales, and The Pilgrimage of the Piltdown Man. But his career started out in nature. Having spent his early life in Scotland and several years in Bristol, he worked as a professional gardener and spent lots of time in some of England's wilder places, including the New Forest, which he knows particularly well. Later in life he then qualified to become a primary school teacher, while also telling stories to audiences of all ages and in a dizzying array of places, including in the sea, neck deep in the drink!One of the special things about Mike's storytelling style is that he likes to play tunes on his walking stick flute, a wonderful prop and instrument, but, as anyone who has read his books will tell you, his voice has wit and humour whether in person or on the page.So settle in for an hour of chat with a storyteller who knows Hampshire's stories as well as anyone, from knights and giants to ghosts to those ever elusive white deer...Learn more about Mike and his work here: https://www.facebook.com/MikeOLearystorytellerThe Three Ravens is an English Myth and Folklore podcast hosted by award-winning writers Martin Vaux and Eleanor Conlon.Released on Mondays, each weekly episode focuses on one of England's 39 historic counties, exploring the history, folklore and traditions of the area, from ghosts and mermaids to mythical monsters, half-forgotten heroes, bloody legends, and much, much more. Then, and most importantly, the pair take turns to tell a new version of an ancient story from that county - all before discussing what that tale might mean, where it might have come from, and the truths it reveals about England's hidden past...Bonus Episodes are released on Thursdays (Magic and Medicines about folk remedies and arcane spells, Three Ravens Bestiary about cryptids and mythical creatures, Dying Arts about endangered heritage crafts, and Something Wicked about folkloric true crime from across history) plus Local Legends episodes on Saturdays - interviews with acclaimed authors, folklorists, podcasters and historians with unique perspectives on that week's county.With a range of exclusive content on Patreon too, including audio ghost tours, the Three Ravens Newsletter, and monthly Three Ravens Film Club episodes about folk horror films from across the decades, why not join us around the campfire and listen in?Learn more at www.threeravenspodcast.com, join our Patreon at www.patreon.com/threeravenspodcast, and find links to our social media channels here: https://linktr.ee/threeravenspodcast Get bonus content on Patreon Hosted on Acast.

In 1912, a discovery was announced that shocked the world. A British paleontologist announced what was perhaps the most important find in the history of paleontology.  The announcement was about the discovery of a fossil, which was claimed to be the missing link between apes and humans.  It was a groundbreaking discovery that, if true, would rewrite what we knew about early humanity. Unfortunately, it was all fake. Learn more about Piltdown Man and what was perhaps the biggest scientific hoax of the 20th century on this episode of Everything Everywhere Daily.

In which Tod reads for you The Rats in the Walls by HP Lovecraft, first published in the March 1924 issue of Weird Tales. Please note, this is a horror podcast, so this episode might not be for everyone. This story contains depictions of cult worship, mispronunciations of various Anatolian and Roman deities, the American Civil War and the Great War, ancient and medieval architecture, Piltdown Man, The Marquis de Sade, surprise cannibalism, and of course, swarms and swarms of rats. If such things are likely to bother you unduly, you are encouraged to skip this episode.That said, the offensive cat name has been altered for this reading. My cat's name is Mephistopheles, so now he's in the story. He's also a black cat in real life. The intro and outro bits were recorded without a proper microphone, oops, and sound a little weird. Maybe I'll re-record those when I get back home.The ambiance is Haunted Catacomb Ambiance. There's some squeaky, scurrying rat noises in there. That might bug you.

In this episode we discuss Piltdown Man the fraudulent discovery of the missing link, Tollund Man which is a different man altogether Ötzi the ice man which is a different man also and the great peat/mud debate.

In 1912, English geologists and archaeologists were buzzing over the discovery of an amazing set of human remains recovered from a gravel pit outside the village of Piltdown. Amateur archeologist Charles Dawson had uncovered what looked to be Darwin's "Missing Link", the proof of human evolution. Thought to be 600,000 years old, Dawson's find - a fossilized human skull and a jawbone that looked much like an ape's - was immediately controversial and fascinating. On this episode, we're talking gravel, lost teeth, the long con, and why you should always get an expert to vouch for you. Sources for this episode include: "The Piltdown Man Hoax: Case Closed" by M. Russell, 2012 "Study reveals culprit behind Piltdown Man, one of science's most famous hoaxes", by M. Price for Science magazine, 2016 "Solving the Piltdown Man Scientific Fraud" by I. De Groot for Scientific American, 2016 "The Problem of Piltdown Man", by M. Subramanian for Distillations, 2023 "Note on the Piltdown Man (Eoanthropus Dawsoni )" by A. Smith Woodward for The Geological Magazine, 1913

The Piltdown Man, perpetrated by Charles Dawson in 1912, was hardcore academic gospel until new technology in the 1950s proved it to be a hoax - one manufactured to prove the ‘missing link' was English. Scientists in Japan have recently reported that one of many ‘mermaids', or Ningyo, found in the county were actually a sophisticated forgery from hundred of years ago. They were manufactured to convince people of the mystical creature's existence and possibly to sell health elixirs since, like the Unicorn, Ningyos are thought to possess magical powers. Other hoaxes carried out by charlatans today are no less a scam even if based on very real, or possibly real, things - consider all the fake alien, insider, and cryptid stories. As with mythology there is usually a basis for the fantastic in reality. When Europeans first saw the Flamingo, their reports were seen as fantastic stories of a cryptid creature. Sailors witnessing large squid told partly true stories of the kraken and when a women was in the ocean half under and half above the water she was therefore seen as half human and half fish - a mermaid. There is much more to myths, fairytales, and even hoaxes than absolutisms.

In December, 1912 a lawyer and a paleontologist made an amazing announcement: The missing link was real, the missing link had been found, and--most incredibly--the missing link was... English?

Who was 'Piltdown Man' and how did his discovery fool the scientific community?

The Piltdown Man was a paleoanthropological fraud in which bone fragments were presented as the fossilised remains of a previously unknown early human. Although there were doubts about its authenticity virtually from the beginning, the remains were still broadly accepted for many years, and the falsity of the hoax was only definitively demonstrated in 1953. An extensive scientific review in 2016 established that amateur archaeologist Charles Dawson was responsible for the fraudulent evidence. Our theme song was written and performed by Anna Bosnick.

In which Tod and Claire discuss Episode 20, "Dagon," by HP Lovecraft, first published in the 1919 issue of The Vagrant, and Tod edits this in a hotel room, his very first hotel edit since starting the show.Absolutely critical to understanding some of this episode is gazing upon the work of Gustave Doré, most notably, that crazy vase, which I hope to see some morning this week when I'm in San Francisco. Also, read up on Piltdown Man, as I'm sure we got some facts wrong.Hey, does anyone actually read the show notes?If so, let us know at hideous@podsothoth.club, or tweet about the show and mention @podsothoth when you do.  You can talk about what a dummy I am, like Mike's daughter did, by not calling ourselves Tod-Sothoth and Clairethulhu. A six year old noticed this! Six! Man. She should come to Providence, Rhode Island, in August and guest on a panel, since she's obviously a Lovecraft pun genius. In the meantime, I'm marking this episode explicit so maybe we won't get any more primary school age wunderkinds picking up obvious jokes we left on the table. :)(Just kidding, but we do swear a little bit in the discussions (and talk about unspeakable horrors).)

OK WELL ANYWAY now that the tornado has passed, Erin can continue talking about Kit Williams' book "Masquerade" and the real-life treasure hunt it spawned (on purpose). And Amanda can tell us a little something about some obvious straight-up horse shit that the British scientific community uncritically gobbled right up because it wanted to believe fucking England was the cradle of life, and let that sink in for a moment before you learn the hoax's name: Piltdown Man! Join us, won't you? Bring a shovel.

Episode: 2206 A 1944 progress report on the subject of human evolution.  Today, an old progress report on evolution.

On today's ID the Future Casey Luskin hosts distinguished German paleontologist Günter Bechly to discuss Bechly's essay in the recent Harvest House anthology, The Comprehensive Guide to Science and Faith: Exploring the Ultimate Questions About Life and the Cosmos. Darwinian evolution predicts a gradually branching tree of living forms, with one form shading into another over long periods of evolution, with each transitional step almost too modest to notice. Does the fossil record suggest such a pattern? Quite the opposite, Bechly says. Instead the pattern of the fossil record is consistently one of sudden appearance, and evolutionists have yet to successfully construct a single robustly populated series of gradually transitioning fossils that move chronologically from one form to a distinctly different Read More › Source

Episode: 2176 Hoaxes: can't live with 'em, can't live without 'em.  Today, we walk a fine line.

The Non-Prophets, Episode 21.04 airing Sunday, January 23rd 2022 featuring Laura Magee, Richard Gilliver and August.Ships log: Rear Admiral Johnny P. Angel reporting.Ahoy! This week aboard the Flagship of the Atheist Experience Network, Laura Magee, Richard Gilliver and August head for international waters. Of course, they begin at the official NP winter quarters, a small, but comfortable villa, up the Tiber from the Tyrrhenian Sea, not far from Ostia Antica, seaport of ancient Rome, itself. The skuttlebutt is that il Papa is singing some pro-LGBTQ shanties. A closer listen is warranted. They find that his tone is somehow off…hmmm. Having weighed anchor, these modern day Argonauts sail for what seems a lifetime, only to find themselves traversing the Sulu Sea (yes, the SULU Sea). Upon making landfall at Bataan Port, our intrepid crew surveys the Philippines' new ban on child marriage. About time they cheer! But what is this, they each descry through their looking glass? The expected: religious-types making a typical stink. Noted in the ship's log. Time to make waves…a fair wind blows them southwest along the coast to Borneo, west to Singapore, past the tip of India, through the Suez Canal, beyond the Straights of Gibraltar, hugging Portugal, Espana, and Frahhhnce, across the channel, skirting the eastern coast of England, and FINALLY laying anchor at the Port of Tilbury, in Essex, UK. Here, Captain Laura and the Bridge Crew stride the gangplank and inspect lowly Piltdown Man and his cobbled-together head. They've collected their shillings and shamble (their legs are not used to such stability) to the nearest pub, where over whatever drinks they elect, they confabulate a spell on the topic of that singular cohort: Gen Z: and how they do, and do not get together.

This week Mattie is back! and she dives headfirst into evolutionary biology and one of the biggest hoaxes to ever involve parts of an orangutan. She tells us about the missing link hoax, why people fell for it, and the ongoing who done it about who is responsible for fooling the scientific community for so long. Austin then talks about math. well, he tries to anyway. but his presentation on Pythagoras turned into him talking about yet another sex cult half way through his research. and yes, the two are related.

Neanderthals went extinct around 40,000 years ago so there are a lot of maybes when it comes to what we know about them. Did they know how to start fires? Did they use medicine? Did they have a language similar to humans? Did they know how to preserve food? Did they create art and music? Did they make clothing? Did they sail? The answers to all those questions are big fat maybes, which archaeologist are still trying to figure out. But FirstGuess what everyone? It's almost spooky month, October, the best month of the year, so get excited! This October we have a spectacular line-up. First, the Villisca Axe Murder House, recorded IN the Murder House. Second, Bigfoot, not recorded with an actual Sasquatch. Third, we have Mermaids (Merpeople) recorded in costume, but not underwater. Last we have the Addams Family, I personally have reached out to Christina Ricci, and she will not be guest starring. This is Halloween Month, the best Month!The Good The Bad The NewsThe BadChina is no longer teaching English in schools, why?Firefighters race to save the world's largest tree as wildfires rage because humans are causing fires hotter than nature can handle.The GoodFans rescue a falling cat at stadium. Pfizer says that COVID-19 vaccine is safe and effective for children ages of 5 and 11.Neanderthals lived in small isolated groups, with individuals rarely living past 40 years. This resulted in a stagnation of technology growth, as well as a good amount of inbreeding. Add in their dangerous hunting technique, and it's surprising that Neanderthals did as well as they did and that they did well enough to survive and mate with modern humans before going extinct.Listen now to learn about Neanderthals out brothers from another species.For more information on us, visit our website at betterthanhumanpodcast.comFollow us on Twitter @betterthanhuma1on Facebook @betterthanhumanpodcaston Instagram @betterthanhumanpodcasthttps://www.tiktok.com/@betterthanhumanpodcastor Email us at betterthanhumanpodcast@gmail.comWe look forward to hearing from you, and we look forward to you joining our cult of weirdness!#betterthanhuman #cultofweirdnes

Neanderthals are an extinct species of archaic humans who lived to about 40,000 years ago. Neanderthals left Africa, while modern humans stayed behind. They interbred with an unidentified human species and then were ‘replaced' by modern humans. Neanderthals most likely went extinct due to interbreeding with homo sapiens, climatic change, disease, or a combination of all these factors.It's almost spooky month, get excited everyone! This October we have a banger line up. We have the Villisca Axe Murder House, recorded in the actual Murder House. We have Bigfoot, not recorded with an actual Bigfoot. We have Mermaids (Merpeople) recorded in costume. We have the Addams Family, I personally have reached out to Christina Ricci, and she will not be guest starring. And if you're lucky, another bonus Halloween Episode. This is Halloween Month, the best Month!The Good The Bad The News, Carbon factory built to suck carbon from the sky (the good), and racism is alive and well in Ohio (the bad).Upon the discovery of Neanderthals, they were depicted as slouching, ape-like, and not closely related to modern humans. This was due to the Piltdown Man and racism. Neanderthals true evolutionary history was not understood until as late as the 1960s. Yes, Neanderthals were physically built differently than modern humans, and yes, we interbreed. The gene for red hair might have even come from Neanderthals gene. Listen now to Neanderthals, Part 1, our relatives of a different species. For more information on us, visit our website at betterthanhumanpodcast.comFollow us on Twitter @betterthanhuma1on Facebook @betterthanhumanpodcaston Instagram @betterthanhumanpodcasthttps://www.tiktok.com/@betterthanhumanpodcastor Email us at betterthanhumanpodcast@gmail.comWe look forward to hearing from you, and we look forward to you joining our cult of weirdness!#betterthanhuman #cultofweirdnes

Barnaby gets very annoyed this episode about a toad in a rock, and just the sheer laziness of some historical charlatans. In this episode of That Time When, Amelia tells us the strange tale of the Piltdown Man. Is it the missing link? Or is it just a few skeletons jammed together? Spoiler: It's the second one.

This episode is also available as a blog post: http://donnyferguson.com/2017/05/22/behind-closed-doors-what-the-piltdown-man-hoax-from-1912-can-teach-science-today/ --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/donny-ferguson/message

Continuing with The Hidden History of the Human Race by Michael Cremo and Richard Thompson, we finish the section on the Piltdown Man discoveries and the later exposing as a very complex hoax. We then look at the details of the Beijing Man discoveries, the funding by the Rockefeller Foundation, and the methods used by the people involved to popularize this discovery when it was only a couple of teeth.Again, it should be made clear that studying these discoveries through this book is not necessarily about trying to "disprove" evolution. It is about comparing the way the discoveries that supported the mainstream ideas about evolution were treated, versus the way that discoveries that did not support mainstream ideas, were treated.

What happens when someone commits scientific fraud? What measures are in place to prevent fraudulent science from being conducted or published? Come learn about exposing and preventing scientific hoaxes on this week's episode of How Real is that Science when we discuss one of the most famous instances of scientific fraud, the Piltdown Man.

In 1912, an amateur archeologist found a skull fragment and a jawbone in the English town of Piltdown. What was once thought as a ground breaking find turned out to be an elaborate fraud that misguided evolutionary biology for decades. Join us as we uncover the culprit behind the Piltdown Man hoax! Along the way we knight ourselves, find out how far English men will go to join the Royal Society and have a guest appearance by our boy, Mothman.

The most notorious fraud in the history of Science is the focus of this week's Discovery. Exactly one hundred years ago, British scientists announced their discovery of fossilised skull and jaw bones of what appeared to be the earliest human – a species of humanity closer to our prehistoric ape ancestors than any found before it. In 1912 it was a sensational find. In 1953 it was revealed as a horrible hoax. Jonathan Amos talks to palaeontologists and archaeologists about the case of Piltdown Man and asks, could anything as scientifically scandalous happen today? He visits Chris Stringer, professor of human origins at London's Natural History Museum. The museum is putting the original fraudulent specimens on display after almost sixty years of being hidden in disgrace. Archaeologists Miles Russell and Matthew Pope discuss the prime suspect in the case and ruminate on his motivations.Could the world of human origins research be fooled by a hoaxer today?Producer: Andrew Luck Baker
