lauradi7dwNo, the recent discovery that Neanderthals rendered bone fat doesn't mean that they ate only meat. (there were hazelnut remains in the same site, for example).
I heard a zoom talk about this (mostly about the use of home-made linen and wool garments in the 1760s, to avoid buying from England).

I don't do Colonial re-enactment, but I have had a craving flung on me. I want a pair of those wool and linen shoes. I am not going to try to find any.
