That’s what you will find out after reading this story:
-
A new study shows evidence of the Neanderthal “fat factor” dating back to 125,000 years ago.
-
During the investigation, the settlement residents strategically selected the location of the factory lake and removed the bone marrow, splitting the bones, as well as through the compression and heating process.
-
The fat factory offers Neanderthals to understand their survival diets and that they were able to understand their environment and plan hunting and collecting resources.
Though assembly line 1913 Henry Ford was essentially credited, and people have long understood mass production practice. A new study published in the magazine Scientific progress shows that Neanderthals – distant cousins - owned “fat factories” to get bone marrow for their diets 125,000 years ago. Recent research at the University of Leiden supplements decades of previous research on Neumark-Nord archaeological location near Leipzig, Germany.
About 125,000 years ago, the Earth suffered an intercolonal period with air, much like our climate today. Previous studies in Neumark-Nord have shown that Neanderthals have hunted and beat straight elephants in the region. By Press release The University of Leiden is also evidence of the use of plants in the area, although it is rarely preserved. In addition, earlier studies have shown that residents used fire to control vegetation. Needless to say, Neanderthals have long been underestimated, and a new study does not recover this provision.
Archaeologists of recent excavation found that the Neanderthals intentionally chose the location of the lake shore to treat at least 172 mammals, including deer, horses and auurochs, bones (now extinct cattle). According to the survey, the locals not only interrupted large mammalian bones to extract the chirp, but also to grind bones into thousands of fragments and warmed them in water to pull out the calorie -rich bone fat. These conclusions are presented in advanced resources for thousands of years earlier than before.
“It was intense, organized and strategic,” the first study author Lutz Kindler said in a press release. “The Neanderthals clearly control the resources accurately-by plans for hunting, carcasses and producing fat in a particular task. They understood both the value of fat nutrition, and how to effectively access it, mostly includes parts of the cache carcass in places in the landscape to be transported later and use later.”
Experts believe that the Neanderthals realized that there was a kind of “fat quota” they had to meet to make the (literally) bone crushing process worthy. The authors of the article emphasized the transparent amount of herbivores, which Neanderthals Neumark-Nord had to hunt, explaining that our “cousins” were likely to plan their environment in advance and effectively.
These detailed research was possible because it was not just one website that was preserved – it was the entire landscape, according to the study of the study.
“The huge and exclusive preservation of the Neumark-Nord website complex gives us a unique opportunity to explore how Neanderthals have affected their environment-tiek flora and fauna,” said project researcher Fulc Skerjon.
