Early Humans Obsessed With Corporate Products Too, Science Finds

Early Humans Wore Make-Up, Ate Mussels

In one of the earliest hints of “modern” living, humans 164,000 years ago put on primitive makeup and hit the seashore for steaming mussels, new archaeological finds show.

Call it a beach party for early man.

But it’s a beach party thrown by people who weren’t supposed to be advanced enough for this type of behavior. What was found in a cave in South Africa may change how scientists believe Homo sapiens marched into modernity.

Humaniculture scientists are quietly trying to reassure you that things have, in fact, always been the way they are today.
