- lumost 3y agoA good hypothesis to test, however why wouldn’t we observe human burials in the same (massive) cave system? It would seem odd to develop a ritualistic burial for pets and skip the burial for humans. Reaching the burial spot is extremely difficult for human bodies.
- rolph 3y agowe currently separate pets from humans, we know they are different than us, but respect the undefinable qualia. difficult to reach isnt impossible. i think we would need to see evidence of parallel existence of feral, and domestic populations.
