We’ve all got a friend with pretty questionable taste. They choose the strangest items from the catalog, the weirdest dishes from the menu, and always the most eyebrow-raising relationship partners. But I’ve got news for you, they have some stern competition. Neanderthals from around 49,000 years ago used the skulls and bones of their cannibalistic victims as cutlery, crockery and jewelry.

This also further promoted the theory that Neanderthals’ cannibalism contributed to their extinction.
