Written by an anonymous anthropology BA, Afarensis gets its title from an Ethiopian hominid said to be a transitional between apes and humans. Its subject matter is anthropology and evolution. The blog highlights selected research articles and comes complete with the usual anti-religious scatterings that are standard fare on many of Seed's science blogs dealing with biology and evolution.
The researches linked are quite interesting, and any explanations offered are both concise and clearly written. There is even occasional humor. The posts are short enough to be easily scannable, useful for students and members of the interested public who would like to keep up with incoming research on the subjects, but don't wish to wade through lengthy synopses or opinion pieces.
