Upon closer examination, they discovered it was NOT a 5,500 year old leather shoe.
It was actually Helen Thomas.
(Easy mistake, yeah?)

I’ll bet they were wondering what happened to it. Who thinks to look in the sheep dung? They had to have had a 2-year-old.

Modern my Az. Its well preserved, but it looks like what I would suspect a 5000 y.o. shoe would look like.

From the article:
"Protecting the foot was probably one of the main reasons people started wearing shoes,"
Astonishing!!!

If they find a cave of socks, we’ll finally solve the mystery of where lost socks wind up.

So that’s where I lost it. “It was a cold and rainy night back in 5,500 BC”.
To: GonzoII
Oh, I loved the “scholarly” speculation around the shoe. “Why was the shoe made?” Duh....

Looks like it was sewn “skinny side out and wooly side in!”

Also found in the cave was the shoe repair claim ticket, which said that the shoe will be ready for pick up next Tuesday.

“Last of the Breed” by Louis L’Amour
Chapter 8
That evening, spreading out the reindeer hide, he drew a
tracing of each foot.
Allowing for the sides, he carefully cut out the selected
sections.
Bringing up the two sides, he used thin strips to stitch
them together at the heel and then at the toe.
After trying them on, he made holes for the laces of rawhide.
A hide such as he had before him would easily make nine
pair of moccasins.
He made only four pair, knowing they would quickly wear
out but needing the remainder of the hide for rawhide
strings.
For cold weather he would need much better footwear,

“Protecting the foot was probably one of the main reasons people started wearing shoes, and certainly this seems the case for the world’s oldest leather shoe.”
Nothing gets past these guys! Probably only one shoe since the other was thrown at the local politician.
