“He had a fire under his belly so that the Flintstones could have hot water.”

How do you know it’s a “he” you sexist?

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

I would imagine that in the days before refrigeration you would want to keep the smells and smoke out of the sleeping area and take the trash-garbage as far out of camp as possible to avoid attracting large scavenging predators. So did they design it or did it come about just to avoid the smells and dangers of keeping food too close to the "bedroom"? Or did those that did not practice this method not survive to reproduce?

Did they have a carnivorous turtle under the sink to use as a disposer? How about a bird-powered dishwasher?
