Cavemen need MEAT!!
« on: 19 April 2007, 10:33:38 PM »
I hope I'm not boring those who may have already seen this on a couple other forums of which I am a member.

My tribe of Copplestone cavemen needed some food, so I found some green stuff (epoxy putty) and had a go at making some.

Enjoy! :mrgreen:

I saw those in a link over at Cave Wars. Very nice indeed. You should consider casting those. Or mabe doing custom versions for LA or Cave War members.  :mrgreen:

Here's a very anal-retentive question you should probably pay no heed to, but I'll pose it anyway: Would cavemen really have left meat hanging in the open, like that? Seems to me like it'd attract predators  :P

OK- I edited the links- give it a try.

Sorry about that- those links broke on me a while back and I forgot to change them at this forum.

I dont think anyone knows :D  though meat was cured (like biltong or jerky) form early times and often smoekd too so yes suppose it would be hung for use later on.

i doubt the meat would not have been hung willy-nilly.  if it wasn't hung in a secure location - like in a hut - it was guarded.

i recall a History Channel (or was it Food Network?) show about the history of Barbeque.  the Native Americans smoked and dried the meat in the open fields, on the beach, etc but also made a big deal of the whole process so lots of hands - and eyes and ears etc - were available to help prep.  i assume the big ruckus also helped keep curious predators away.

perhaps it's a commentary on Modern Society that we can have a restaurant seat 100 people who still basically eat alone and completely divorced from the food preparation process that used to require the whole village or settlement.

but i'll avoid the social commentary!
