Still Waters Posted February 22, 2019 #1 Share Posted February 22, 2019 In the northeast of the Iberian Peninsula, between the third and second millennium BC, a widespread funeral practice consisted in burying humans with animals. Scientists have discovered that both foxes and dogs were domesticated, as their diet was similar to that of their owners. The discovery of four foxes and a large number of dogs at the Can Roqueta (Barcelona) and Minferri (Lleida) sites stands out among the many examples of tombs in different parts of the north-eastern peninsula. These burials reveal a generalized funeral practice that proliferated in the Early to Middle Bronze Age: that of burying humans together with domestic animals. https://www.heritagedaily.com/2019/02/foxes-were-domesticated-by-humans-in-the-bronze-age/122722 1 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
