Until now, nearly 9,300-year-old remains of dogs eaten by humans at a Texas site were the oldest physical evidence of American canines. Maybe the "First Americans" came from Korea, not Siberia?

I think nearly all cultures ate dogs as a last option. Some of the Koreans/Chinese/Vietnamese eat dogs as according to chinese medicine it has some medicinal properties

They didn’t have cows, horses, goats, sheep or chickens. Kind of makes me wonder what the Aztecs put in their tacos in those big cities they had.

Humans don’t bury their food. It’s easy to determine if an animal was revered or eaten.

Marvin Harris says all the sacrificial killing was about providing protein. There was a whole industry of butchering and distributing the human bodies after they were thrown down from the altar.

Science was slow to prove how long ago domesticated dogs were in the Americas.

Well, I’ll take my European Boxer breed, Thank You. Still cool to know we have an indigenous dog from thousands of years ago right in my stomping grounds.

“Marvin Harris says all the sacrificial killing was about providing protein.”
I remember the wholesale sacrificial slaughter (from WAY back in my college history classes), but don’t remember anything being mentioned about cannibalism. It makes sense though in a blood-lust culture like that. I’m betting that aspect was left out in my college texts...or, maybe just not known when I attended college (just after the Renaissance).
I’ll look for Cannibals and Kings at the library. Thanks.
