Patrick, you recommended a book of cave art in an early episode--i thought i remembered this one but maybe another. What is that recommended cave art book?

Much has been said about the importance of fire and cooking for increasing the availability of calories and protein. But i think the most important aspect is the reduction in levels of parasites. I have written about it here: https://www.canhealyourself.com/homeopathy/semi-aquatic-ape-theory/

Great stuff, Patrick. When we talk about "interbreeding events", what are we talking about, one boy meets one girl one time, or something larger than that? Trying to get a handle on how many times humans and Neanderthals or Denisovans interbred to get our observed percentages of genetic contribution. Thanks.
