What are these unpublished things?

[@worldofpaleoanthropology]

I don’t know, they are not published. Most things that are discovered, in the scheme of things, since every sherd of pottery is usually collected from a site, never see the light of day, let alone get published in a paper. Publishig is exspensive to do, and the authors make nothing off it.
