Archaeologists have discovered a prehistoric fire pit in the Czech Republic that would been used over 30,000 years ago to roast mammoths for eating. The find confirms that prehistoric humans would have used mammoths as a food source.
Central Europe's prehistoric people would likely have been amused by today's hand-sized hamburgers and hot dogs, since archaeologists have just uncovered a 29,000 B.C. well-equipped kitchen where roasted gigantic mammoth was one of the last meals served. "
