> The image of our cavemen ancestors as wild hunters who enjoyed no better
meal than flesh torn from their latest kill has been dented by new
archaeological research.

This is an interesting article which does nothing to "dent" our
understanding of our "cavemen ancestors."  These Britons were NEOLITHIC men
not PALEOLITHIC men -- and therefore NOT CAVEMEN.  While this pushes the
dates of the first dairy consumption out by a couple thousand years or so,
it is still but a blip on the timeline.  It definitely does not warrant
Andrew's statement "all praise to milk for caucasians."
