Resumen de A meaty puzzle
Williams and Dunbar talk about the ancient ancestors' meat-eating culture. The story begins a few million years ago, when the forest-dwelling, vegetarian ancestors transformed into meat-eating hunters. A meat-based diet probably started in a modest way with the hominin species Homo ergaster, who lived in Africa from 1.8 million years ago. Later, meat became seriously important in the diet of Homo heidelbergensis, who appeared around 500,000 years ago, then more so in their descendants: the Neanderthals and modern humans.
