How ‘bout otters? Any trophies like otter fang necklaces, otter pelts, or otter skulls?
Ahhh….
The good old Hoabinhians.
Used to play polo with them on Saturdays.
Not a good looking group.
Reminded me of Planet of the Apes without a spaceship.
And they rode ostriches instead of horses.
They always had the biggest omelettes.
Let Helen Thomas rest in peace.
Give a guy a break here. I was stuck for a rhyme.
Nonsense! I think they had no idea that plants and animals were edible.
You may know it as Kuala Lumpur, but it will always be Burma to me. ;)
[Archaeologists think the earliest skeleton from the Malaysian excavation may be up to 16,000 years old.]
Man, that really puts “perpetual care” to the test.
