One of the comments reads : Actually, we will probably never figure out, was it man or woman. but I thought this comment of the professor was an interesting eye opener. https://mastodonapp.uk/@MarkHoltom/112070436760917344
Never mind anything, making the abstract connection between one event and the number of marks you scratch on a wall was probably the equivalent of genius of the time, the first mathematician.
Yeah, no way to know what gender someone had so we just pick one based on our twisted worldview where some gender must be better than other because reasons.
Not sure why you got down voted because you are absolutely right
If we defaulted to "he or she (they probably)" then things would be better but we simply don't. It is always the man's contribution and it's disappointing
This is neat, but how is it a meme?
A woman invented the windshield wiper. Granted, a man inventes the whole effing rest of the car...

"For God doth know that in the day ye eat thereof, then your eyes shall be opened, and ye shall be as gods, knowing good and evil." (Genesis 3:5)
Having your eyes opened to believe nonsense is the goal of such so-called 'education'. For all we know the notches were a tally of successful hunts or a scalp tally. Or maybe the notches were to allow a sinew or leather wrapping to adhere to the bone, possibly being used as a handle for a tool. And who trusts a mere picture being held up as scientific evidence of anything?
Delusional people like to read their preconceived notions into everything. The eugenics supremacists in the education racket tell you that your ancestors were cave-dwelling monkeys so you filter artifacts through that lens and confirm that your ancestors were cave-dwelling monkeys.
Anyone who believes that man began living in caves and tried to make a calendar on a bone is an neanderthal cave-dweller's son.
Savannah dwelling apes, not cave dwelling monkeys.
Cool thought, but why is this in meme /C/ ?
Yep. A bit like a 7 day publicly displayed tracker of days on a 28 day lunar calendar cycle.
Was "I am the God of your Father" an editorial attempt to distinguish the deity from the gods of Egypt, or from the god of a Mother?
There's some pretty odd details in that book, like in Isaac's supposed patriarchal blessing which discussed "the sons of your mother bow down to you" or it being the only place there's the male form of gebirah ("Great Lady") - a title first applied in the text to Isaac's mother whose name is based on the word for 'chief.' Who is supposedly later followed by a figure 'Deborah' ('bee') who is a leader of the people around the time we now know bees were being imported into Tel Rehov and regularly requeened to avoid genetic drift with local bee populations. Also weird that the events regarding a "land of milk and honey" supposedly take place in a land with no honey and only one discovered apiary.
That apiary gets burned down right around the time Asa allegedly deposed his grandmother the gebirah ("Great Lady").
Derek, halt! Unga unga, no cave cuddles now. Me check bone-calendar, unga bunga, big chance for baby bump. We wait, sky spirits nod-nod. Timing everything, unga!
Sure, that was the way for woman to use a calender…
Lol, mansplain harder! I'm sure it had nothing to do with wanting to know when their next period was due, to, you know, know when their next period was due, and be prepared for that, without it having anything to do with a man.. 🙄🤦♀️😂
