Thanks Blam.
In fact, so many nibbled-on reindeer bones were present in their caves that possible calendars circa 26,000 years ago might have been carved on the leftover bones. They may have also been used as counting devices or for ornamentation.
In fact, so many sated cavemen wanted bragging rights to who'd eaten the most that they invented the first system for counting by carving marks on the bones of their previous meals. ;')

To all -- please ping me to other topics which are appropriate for the GGG list.
