Anthropological Evidence

What sort of evidence do we see in human culture for a Carnivore Diet?

Are Humans really Carnivores?

Tooth from an Adult Neanderthal

Neanderthals May Have Taught Humans to Join a “Cult” 130,000 Years Ago

Stable Isotope and dogs

The first 17 minutes does not tell us much except how little we understand gut biome, the end of the video talks about how some scientist are really trying to find a way to get more plants into the Neanderthal diet. Some how even though the Fossil samples come from a very large range geographically their diet was did not consist of animals with more fa than caribou? There is no discussion about storing meat or fat for winter? Yet they must of some how boiled grass seeds with no evidence of fire or pottery? Anyways it is clear the Neanderthal diet was meat heavy.
