Ice Age Kids Sported Cheek Piercings, 29,000-Year-Old Teeth Suggest
Researchers have uncovered a shocking discovery in the realm of ancient history. A recent excavation has revealed that Ice Age children sported cheek piercings, contradicting our previous understanding of early human adornment practices.
According to new findings published today by Gizmodo, an astonishing 29,000-year-old teeth suggest that the practice of facial piercing was not unique to any particular culture or time period. These ancient ice age kids, around 11-14 years old at the time, had multiple piercings on their cheeks.
The research, published in a recent issue of Gizmodo’s online magazine, has sent shockwaves through the archaeological community as it turns out that facial piercing is not unique to modern times or even any specific culture.
