This week we happened to find 3 news stories about evidence for eating and cooking food in the ancient world. First up is the first evidence of Homo Erectus cooking fish 780,000 years ago. Then, we fast forward to 70,000 years ago and leftover evidence of a Neanderthal meal gives us insight into how they prepared food. And finally, in Rome new excavations under the coliseum reveal the kind of snacks that spectators would have enjoyed.
For our members, we have a bonus segment describing how one journalist attempted to recreate the Neanderthal meal that we discussed in segment 2!
