Anthropology

Says a lot to me and it sounds like conjecture, why not use sinew to produce cordage?

I find this hypothesis lacking in data
and sophistication of what is known about our cousin.
If they had string that would mean a technological breakthrough in other uses just not adornment.


Interesting OP and worthy of discussion,

BTW check my threads in science this one among others there
for a deeper discussion which I posted way before the GD one.

I try to support this forum but it doesn't get enough hits for exposure to the masses so I go with science too.

I will continue to post here
