    Isnt this just because pants dont leave a lot of traces after tens of thousands of years, while a bone flute is much more likely to do so?

      The earliest proof of clothing we have are needles that survive the pass of time, but not the clothes they made.

      This is kind of how I feel about the idea of the very first writing being chiseled in stone or engraved on clay tablets. If there was a much older civilization that never did that but invented paper and pencils instead, we’d probably never know it.

        Writing on the ground is probably No. 1 then maybe carving with a stone into wood/bark as No. 2 but yeah, lots of stuff we will never see or know about because they werent preserved.

          Or because it’s not immediately recognizable as writing. I wonder how long it would have taken archeologists to figure out the quipu was actually a knot-based writing system without the Spanish mentioning their use by the Incas in their records of the invasion.

      That and that people used to wear other sorts of garments that weren’t such a pain to make.

      Wearing pants is like the opposite of music, in terms of cool at least.

        Not in my town. There’s only a few things you’re allowed to play in the nude where I live; saxophone, xylophone, sousaphone, basically only if it ends in phone.

      Oh, and here I was thinking that rocking with your cock out was stimming in the shower during a crisis in existential dread. Well, you learn something new every day.
