Man carves out half a pumpkin with eyeholes and puts it on his head to amuse the tribe after dinner. Archaelogist 65000 years later: here we see a fossilzed gourd used by the males as a helmet in battle.
Kidding aside , our view has been tainted by the current patriarcal times. Century ago and women could not vote, own property, some still need husbands permission for things in certain countries. Many assume it was always like that but 450 BC, Celtic Woman owned half their property with husband, on his death she got her half and his could be willed to her or anyone else. The Romans invading Wales were dumbfounded to be fighting women in battle. The narrative that only men owned things or did the “hard” stuff is bullshit
Pssh. Next thing you know, these “scientists” will be claiming to have disproven that men are from Mars and women are from Venus.
It’s true what they say. Women are from Omicron Persei VII. Men are from Omicron Persei IX.
Venus rhymes with a piece of anatomy often found on men. Obviously they got it backwards
I found an interesting scientific article talking about this topic, focusing on the Americas. Here’s a link if anyone is interested.
Special emphasis on this map. Red circle = woman buried with hunting tools for large prey.
This also reminds me the etymology of the Amazon rainforest, after the mythical female warriors. Apparently a Spanish explorer fought some “tapuya” (non-Tupi) people, with men and women taking on arms. And when you think about it, the same set of skills and attributes necessary for war are useful to hunt large non-humans, and vice versa.
Was that even really a theory or are we disproving what loudmouths down at the bar claim again?
