What ancient humans ate 5,000 years ago is revealed through analysis of ancient cooking cauldrons.

They discovered that, through the traces of blood proteins, muscle tissue, and milk identified, this shows that people in the Caucasus region 5,000 years ago used these bronze cauldrons to cook deer, sheep, goats, cows, water buffalo, stews, and milk. Photo: @University of Zurich.

“This is the first evidence we have of a rich and diverse range of ancient proteins contained in large cooking cauldrons,” said Dr Shevan Wilkin. “It is clear that ancient Caucasian people used these cauldrons to cook large feasts for the whole community, not just for a small family.” Photo: @University of Zurich.
