Flintstone's kitchen shown to be accurate for REAL stoneagers

In a stone-age version of "Iron Chef," early humans were dividing their living spaces into kitchens and work areas much earlier than previously thought, a new study found.

So rather than cooking and eating in the same area where they snoozed, early humans demarcated such living quarters.

Archaeologists discovered evidence of this coordinated living at a hominid site at Gesher Benot Ya'aqov, Israel from about 800,000 years ago. Scientists aren't sure exactly who lived there, but it predates the appearance of modern humans, so it was likely a human ancestor such as Homo erectus.

Homo erectus? Isn’t that something you see in San Francisco?

fyi

[Silly]

early humans demarcated such living quarters.

And defecated in others.

Odd, because I like homes where the kitchen is a central park of the home.

A nice big open space with kitchen, dining room open to one another as well as flowing to the living room. A nice fireplace/pizza oven would be a nice touch.

I want bedrooms demarcated from that.

central part

Yeah, but did they use a mammoth’s trunk as a dishwasher :-)

Unlike modern day cave people politicians in congress, primitive man knew even back then that you shouldn’t crap on or where you eat. At least separate the areas. congress craps where it eats all the time, except in this instance of healthcare which will NOT apply to them at all.

And a critter under the sink for a garbage disposal. That’s what I was expecting when I clicked into the thread.

Israel from about 800,000 years ago................................... 800,000 years ago? Not 6,000? How can that be? And from Israel??

and did they have their own early version of Viagra to help give them this name?

[mike48]

“and did they have their own early version of Viagra to help give them this name?”

Viagra = ground mammouth tusks. DO I HAVE TO TELL YOU EVERYTHING? SHEESH!

[B-Chan]

I always felt sorry for that mammoth. He had a fire under his belly so that the Flintstones could have hot water.
