Evidence for Use of Fire Found at Peking Man Site

 

Topic: Fire-Cooking?

My Thoughts:

When discoveries such as these are found, especially where there are  burned bones( animal we can only hope), can we dare to assume that these people cooked their food? I hope the evidence confirms that they did.

I have been reading a fascinating book, “ Catching Fire, How Cooking made us Human“, by Richard Wrangham. It is worth the read. This book will make you rethink how important cooking and fire was to ancient man, the foods he consumed, and his ultimate development.
