    That’s really not how things work. We know a lot about ancient foods specifically because they get stuck in cracks in tools and we can get them out and study them. The rain didn’t get the tiny flecks of wheat out of the cracks.

      This is a fine powder which will dissolve in water. It will wash out and honestly, if it doesn’t, it’s so deep in that its completely unnoticeable and doesn’t matter. Much worse has happened to Stonehenge.

      “The rain didn’t get the tiny flecks of wheat out of the cracks” Yet somehow it’s clean. Why are you continuing to act like this is comparable to actual paint? You’re whining about something that’s literally not a deal in the slightest, you really should stop making free propaganda for oil companies

      slight wording edit at the start

        Maybe if you had given me that article before you started berating me for not knowing what I was talking about, I might have been educated on the subject.

        Are you really not able to talk to people without insulting them?

          The responsibility is on you to do your research before you argue about a topic.

            My claim about ancient foods in stone tools is accurate. It is what I was basing my claim on. It’s called residue analysis. I’m not sure why any research would have told me otherwise. Do you expect me to be a geologist?

            I admitted I was wrong in this case, but you apparently want me to somehow go back into the past and undo what I posted. Sorry, my time machine has been on the fritz lately.

            And if that’s not what you want, exactly what do you want? Do I need to make a public apology? What?
