Prehistoric child is found with toy hedgehog at Stonehenge

Quote:
This toy hedgehog, found in a child's grave at Stonehenge, is proof of what we have always known - children have always loved to play.
The chalk figurine was probably a favourite possession of the three year old, and placed next to the child when they died in the late Bronze Age or early Iron Age, around 3,000 years ago.

It just that we really havent changed much, even with our science and tecnology

Is it me or archaeologists talk absolute rubbish an awful lot.

They do not know what this object represents culturally.

How can they,but now it will be a toy hedgehog for ever.
Sia

Why is it not a toy ?
david hobbs

For exactly the same reason that it is a toy.

How do they know what it is?

Perhaps it still had the Toysrus label on it
Kas

What makes them so sure it's a hedgehog?
david hobbs

Exactly my point.
Sia

Points taken, however I really dont think we have changed that much, apart from than were educated and more informed

They used to cook hedgehogs in clay

When it's done, the needles come off a treat and apparently it is very tasty.

You just had to point that out didn't you?
You really give me the needle sometimes.
It doesn't really appeal to us that you northerners eat Hedgehogs.
It's just not a done thing in the south you know. Squirrel is much more fashionable down here!
Bravo

ok point taken you prickly sod....erm I ran out of puns after two also    
Kas

Glad you added the ly. I know you thought about it  

It could have raised a sore point and poked fun at me.

So what's for tea tonight? Boiled Badger?
Bravo

Ok I admit it, I don't know what a ly is  

Bloomin substandard northern schools...
Kas

It was on the end of Prick  
Bravo

Oh yes, and there I was thinking it was some kind of musical instrument

When I worked at Pontins I shared a chalet with a guy who claimed that it was delicious.

Personaly I don't like anything to sharp.
Bravo

When its done, the clay is hard, so they have to smash it and open it like a nut.  The meat comes out and all the spikes stay inside the clay shell.

It doesn't appeal to me tbh

And I was just about to invite him to my BBq.
