The oldest gay in the village: 5,000-year-old is 'outed' by the way he was buried

 

 

 

• Skeleton was pointing eastwards and surrounded by domestic jugs - rituals only previously seen in female graves
  

 

Five thousand years after he died, the first known gay caveman has emerged into the daylight.

 

According to archaeologists, the way he was buried suggests that he was of a different sexual persuasion.

 

The skeleton of the late Stone Age man, unearthed during excavations in the Czech Republic, is said to date back to between 2900 and 2500 BC.

I know this is the dailymail, but still I think it's quite interesting. :uhoh:

This is quite interesting indeed! If it's true and he was gay, I find it great that his family or whoever buried him accepted him as being gay and put these female things into his grave :)

 

Also I really like the pose the 'early' people put their dead fellow human beings in, it really looks like they're just sleeping and being comfy :wacky:

I saw this on TV a few days ago.

 

A gay caveman = a gayveman?:P
