The earliest direct evidence of human milk consumption has been discovered in Britain
The earliest direct evidence of human milk consumption to date has been identified in Britain – BBC’s news portal wrote.
The authors of the study, published in the journal Archaeological and Anthropological Sciences, discovered a milk protein called beta-lactoglobulin in the tartar of Neolithic farmers. This shows that the prehistoric inhabitants of what is now Britain have been consuming dairy products 6,000 years ago, despite being lactose-sensitive. (MTI)
