Burial of a Yamnaya child (6-7 years) with four sheep knuckle bones as a grave good. This is yet another example of how some children were also given careful burials in the Yamnaya culture. I wonder if these were used as a toy or for religious reasons (or both). His burial chamber inside the kurgan may have been supported by wooden posts. There is evidence based on how his head was position that a pillow may have been used to support his head showing that maybe Yamnaya used them for sleeping. The burial name is Peschany-4, kurgan 13 and the source of the information and image is from the supplementary file of the recent paper "The genetic origin of the Indo-Europeans".

Leading British prehistorian Francis Pryor writing in 2011.
Well known for his excavation of the Bronze Age Flag Fen site, he has written many books and appeared on many TV shows, especially in the 90s and 2000s.
I have enjoyed many of his books, for example his 2003 book "Britain BC" where he argues against the concept of prehistoric "invasions" generally, and specifically by the Iron Age Celts and by Neolithic farmers. He says the old demographic "wave of advance" model has been disproven. He ignores the Bell Beaker migration to such an extent that as far as I can see he only mentions beaker pots once, in passing. The British Neolithic passes into the Bronze Age seamlessly.
We now know, thanks to aDNA, that Britain saw an almost complete turnover in population at the Mesolithic / Neolithic boundary and at the Neolithic / Bronze Age boundary too.
It's almost impossible to overstate the extent to which the "genetic revolution" - from say 2015 onwards - has transformed mainstream archeology.

NEW VIDEO ALERT!
In the Bronze Age Mediterranean, the Nuragic Civilization built thousands of stone structures that look like medieval castles. Some of these towers were 100ft tall!
But what were they really?
This is the story of the mysterious nuraghe of ancient Sardinia.
Hope you enjoy the video. Shares appreciated!

The first pottery in the world was NOT made by Neolithic farmers.
In fact, it was made during the Ice Age.
So, who made this pottery? Why was it invented and how was it used?
Find out now on Dan Davis History.
Shares much appreciated! Cheers 🙏

If you look up stuff like "ancestral diet" and "what did ancient humans eat?" and stuff like that you will find videos from both "carnivore diet" advocates and "vegan / plant based diet" advocates asserting that pre-agricultural people were entirely carnivorous or ate mostly plants.
I watched this one on a carnivore channel cos it had a mesolithic European on the thumbnail. But I had to drop a comment because unfortunately it was saying stuff that was just wrong, implying we're more carnivorous than lions and all plants are toxic.
People will use this appeal to nature and/or tradition stuff to support their dietary beliefs but they don't need to. You're not eating like a mesolithic man anyway if you're eating 15 beef steaks a week and 1000 chicken eggs a year.
Personally, I only eat mammoth, woolly rhino, and Victoria sponge cake.

The Pitted Ware culture (c. 3500 BC - 2300 BC) of Southern Scandinavia relied heavily on seals as a resource.
These animals provided skins, meat, blood, and perhaps most precious of all, blubber.
Their characteristic pottery reveals they consumed this precious fat. Baltic hunter gatherers seem to have stored seal fat, mixed with cranberry or lingonberry which contain chemicals that would have helped stop the meat/fat from spoiling. They also seem to have made a kind of blood porridge or blood cake, with blood mixed with wild grains.

Touching burial of a Yamnaya baby inside of a kurgan. He was laid to rest in a single grave pit and placed on his back with legs flexed in accordance with Yamnaya burial rituals.
His remains were dna tested and he was assigned the R1b1a1b1b (R-M12149) haplogroup.

New study shows hunter-gatherer metal workers in prehistoric Anatolia doing copper working 9,000 years ago.
"Excavations at Gre Filla in Diyarbakir, uncovered architectural structures, copper artifacts, and vitrified materials that point to early pyrometallurgical activities.
Until now, the earliest known evidence of smelting dated to approximately 5,000 B.C. at Yumuktepe in Anatolia [and in the Balkans too actually, maybe even earlier] However, Gre Filla’s findings—dated to around 8,000 B.C.—could shift this paradigm dramatically."

Here are some quick facts about the Middle Dnieper Culture (early subgroup of Corded Ware Culture).
1. Economy: Cattle herding along with some agriculture
2. Lived in houses with pillars and hearths.
3. Had kurgans, flat graves, and even cremations
4. Culture included both stone axes and metal axes.
5. Theorized by some archeologists to have a solar and fire cult.
Summarized this info by using google translate to read the Russian language Wikipedia page on this culture. Sadly much of this info is not on the English Wikipedia page. This culture is quite interesting because they are theorized to be ancestors of Fatyanovo.

I wonder if these were used as a toy or for religious reasons (or both). His burial chamber inside the kurgan may have been supported by wooden posts. There is evidence based on how his head was position that a pillow may have been used to support his head showing that maybe Yamnaya used them for sleeping.
