Fat years ping.
I get tired of leftovers in less than 12 days. ;^)

Thanks decimon....a feast 12,000 years ago... might be the first clear evidence of feasting in early humans, a sign of the kinds of increasingly complex societies... the body of a petite, elderly, disabled woman... in a specially crafted hollow between the remains of at least 71 Mediterranean tortoises, as well as with seashells, beads, stone tools and bone tools. In a separate pit nearby, they also found bones of at least three wild, extinct cattle known as aurochs. The cattle bones showed clear signs of butchery, with the bones cracked for marrow, while there were enough tortoises to supply meat for at least 35 people. Signs of burning were seen on both the cattle and turtle remains, suggesting they were cooked....and for dessert, lady fingers! Sounds like she was just dry enough to use for firewood. Shaman my ass. :') S/b "sha-woman" anyway... |
