Belgium: Detecting people eating meat together 40,000 years ago

Recent scientists have discovered signs of skin peeling, cut into pieces and took the bone marrow of an ancient race.

A new study shows that the Neanderthals race 40,000 years ago in Belgium used to eat cannibalism. Scientists discovered this horrible thing in many caves that contained human bones with signs of being slaughtered.

One of the Goyet caves in Belgium, where Neanderthal evidence is eaten by humans.

Ancient Neanderthals not only eat each other, but they also use human bones as tools.

Neanderthals are ethnic people living in Europe and western Asia throughout hundreds of thousands of years, before extinction between 30,000 and 40,000 years ago.

When the Neanderthals gradually disappeared, Homo sapiens (ancestors of modern humans) occupied this land. Evidence suggests that the two races have intercourse, and 4% of modern European and Asian DNA is thought to be inherited from the Neanderthals.

Human skeletons discovered in Goyet caves in Belgium have traces of cut, punctured, and many markings, indicating they were slaughtered, researchers wrote in the journal Science Report.

It seems to be a process throughout. There is evidence of skin peeling, multiple cuts, and bone marrow removal. The scientist headed the study, Professor Hervé Bocherens, from the University of Tübingen in Germany, said: " These traces show that the Neanderthals have the custom of cannibalism. Many of the bones of horses and reindeer also Found in Goyet cave, processed in the same way ".

Not only eating humans, Neanderthals also used human bones as tools.

In addition, the four bones in the cave clearly show that the Neanderthals used the rest, namely the bones, of the dead to make tools.

A femur and three bones of the shin are used to shape stone tools. In a similar way, animal bones are often used as a tool to smash other things.

Other signs of the predatory Neanderthal race have previously appeared in Spain and France.
