And a lot more moldy and stale, I am sure.

It was the yeast people could do, even if it got a rise out of some.

Well, “Make It With You” came out in 1970.

".... other researchers have suggested that bread and beer were consumed during Natufian feasts."

Maybe it wasn't bread, but Pretzels.

Astonishingly, to me at least, when I was a student (not in Israel but in Chicago) I actually dated a girl named Shubayqa Breadlike. I only now came upon this post whilst searching for her on the internet. Thank you Free Republic!

You certainly have a crusty sense of humor.

...They were not samples that could be placed at first. Not seeds, nuts or charred wood...

I'm not a food archaeologist or anything but that sounds suspiciously like Thanksgiving at my Mother in Law's.

Because “rock & roll” came long before “hard rock”. Of course.

Unleavened bread, most likely.

Thanks BenLurkin and a fool in paradise. Most of the ancient bread ever discovered was (unsurprisingly) found buried under the crud from the 79 AD eruption of Vesuvius.

A Natufian woman was doing something with a bunch of stones, wood, and wild grains; a Natufian man asked her what she was doing, and after she explained her idea, he said, "I Want To Make It With You".
