I was only just recently having a chat with my neighbour, a 1000 year old hunter gatherer, over our garden fence discussing the pro's and con's of catching and eating meat 1000 years ago.
Though he is an old chap he agrees with me that the incisors at the front of our mouths were indeed designed by some higher power as a means to tear meat to bits, and not chew on some dandelion stem we picked while hunter gathering.
I asked him if he would ask his decendents next time he had them over for a meal whether they felt the same. He said he would.
Nothing like hearing something from the horses mouth, so to speak, and not relying on some modern day theoretical fantasist to make assumptions about how people lived 1000 years ago.

1000 years ago the 3.5 million year old human ancestors mentioned in the article were long, long dead. In fact, most human societies transitioned away from being hunter-gatherers to settlements and agriculture around 10,000 to 11,000 years ago.
Also the article, which you clearly didn't read, isn't reporting findings based on fantasist assumptions but studies of organic materials extracted from tooth enamel, the proportions of which are linked to the amount of meat eaten in a diet. You know, actual science.
Please don't continue, quit while you're behind.
