MALE EXTINCTION
ARTSY - FEATURED SHOWS - 04.12.2025
The exhibition begins with a question: What might a future without men look like? Recent studies by several geneticists suggest that the Y chromosome - a key factor in determining a person's gender - is starting to deteriorate. So, what could this mean for the future? What is particularly intriguing, however, is a finding that, in some ways, overturns centuries of history and social narratives: evidence has emerged of a powerful role held by women dating as far back as the Stone Age. A recent article published by the New Scientist Magazine highlights an important archaeological discovery that sheds new light on the roles of women in the Stone Age. The research indicates that women of that era often held prominent positions as rulers, warriors, hunters, and shamans. Often, however, the discovery of skeletal remains led researchers to presume they belonged to male individuals. In 2008 near Seville, Spain, archaeologists uncovered the burial of a young individual surrounded by luxurious grave goods, including an impressive ivory horn. This find became known as the legend of the “Ivory Man”, with researchers believing he was the most influential person on the Iberian Peninsula. However, thirteen years later, protein analysis of dental enamel revealed that the individual, once thought to be the Ivory Man, was actually the Ivory Woman.
