Eating a can or tin of meat isn’t as new as we would subject. When people were assumed to be hunter-gatherers, they did not just eat what they caught, they also reserved some of it for later use.
In a cave in Israel, thought to be at least 400,000 years old, the humans stored “bones packed with fat and tasty, nutrient-rich marrow to crack open and eat later.”
The dates in this context are all wrong.
They “stored bones packed with fat and tasty, nutrient-rich marrow to crack open and eat later.”
The bones were usual as cans, for later use.
The findings were posted in October 9th in the journal Science Advances.
