Silicone Breast Implants In 33,000 B.C.



The New York Times: Full-Figured Statuette, 35,000 Years Old.

No one would mistake the Stone Age ivory carving for a Venus de Milo. The voluptuous woman depicted is, to say the least, earthier, with huge, projecting breasts and sexually explicit genitals.

Nicholas J. Conard, an archaeologist at the University of Tübingen, in Germany, who found the small carving in a cave last year, said it was at least 35,000 years old, “one of the oldest known examples of figurative art” in the world. It is about 5,000 years older than some other so-called Venus artifacts made by early populations of Homo sapiens in Europe.

Another archaeologist, Paul Mellars of the University of Cambridge, in England, agreed and went on to remark on the obvious. By modern standards, he said, the figurine’s blatant sexuality “could be seen as bordering on the pornographic.”

This little idol looks very similar to the Cornish hen I was served during Thanksgiving... il est très savoureux!!

Perhaps those were stone implants instead?

These buggers had lot of free time, and no fair maidens to mess around! No wonder, they needed wimps! Right, OIM?
