How old were the finds? 3-4000 years or so? (My pre-historic history is all rather fuxxy in my head...)
But yes, that would certainly predate any evidence I've ever seen about Yule-tide fests. Still; we celebrate Christmas in denmark with roast pork, so I suppose some things never change. (Even if Leviticus expressly forbids pork-eating; I love the idea of celebrating a Christian holiday with a feast that's forbidden in the Bible... That ought to teach those hard-core Bible-thumbers!!! Add a shrimp-cocktail and some sodomy, and that's what I call a party! Erh...)
