Some early humans in England were cannibals who ate human flesh, gnawed on bones and split them to feast on the marrow inside, a new study has found.
Analysis of ancient cadavers recovered at an archaeological site confirm the existence of a sophisticated culture of butchering and carving human remains, researchers said. Gough's Cave in Somerset, UK, was thought to have given up all its secrets when excavations ended in 1992, yet research on human bones has continued in the decades since.
The excavations uncovered intensively-processed human bones intermingled with abundant butchered large mammal remains.
