Here is something you probably didn't know

[Quixote1818]

Oldest human hair known. It was found in hyena dung, dating to between 250,000 BP- 195,000 BP.

Poor old chap! I wonder if he tasted like chicken?

1. BP?

I know BCE and BC but don't know what BP stands for.

2. Before Present - where "Present" is the year 1950 AD

It's the time scale used in radiocarbon dating

3. It means "Before Present".

Which also means before 1950. After 1950 nuclear weapons testing artificially altered the proportion of the carbon isotopes in the atmosphere, making radiocarbon dating after that time likely to be unreliable.

4. Fake News

I have it on good authority that the Earth is only 6,000 years old. It's in a book, so you KNOW it's true.

Probably tasted like some scrawny red-meat something.

6. Word is, humans taste more like pork.

That's what I read anyway.

7. 'long pig'??

8. I had to look that up - hadn't heard of that.

What I read is that the Aztec nobles, after the Spanish conquest of Mexico, favored pork, because it tasted like the human flesh from prisoners of war sacrificed on the pyramid.
