  • ... that ancient humans cared for a 14,000-year-old puppy? Source: Janssens, L., Giemsch, L., Schmitz, R., Street, M., Van Dongen, S., & Crombé, P. (2018). A new look at an old dog: Bonn-Oberkassel reconsidered. Journal of Archaeological Science, 92, 126–138. doi:10.1016/j.jas.2018.01.004, p. 10 "The dog was young and sick, likely was untrained as a result, and thus had no obvious utilitarian value to surrounding humans. Thus, we hypothesize further that the inferred supportive care probably was due to compassion or empathy, without any expectation of reciprocal utilitarian benefits. We suggest that the Bonn-Oberkassel dog provides the earliest known evidence for a purely emotion-driven human-dog interaction."

Overall:   Great work on the article, Generalissima! That's quite an interesting hook; humans caring for a 14,000-year-old puppy?! Anyway, for the hook's source, which I managed to track down using the DOI in the article and leading me to a ScienceDirect source, and verifies the hook as the data "statistically overlaps 14C". Again, great work! :) ~ Tails Wx (🐾, me!) 02:42, 20 April 2024 (UTC)Reply

Since you reviewed my FAC for Hotline Miami 2. It'll take me a little bit to get to this one, but I'm going ahead and marking it. λ NegativeMP1 17:03, 29 April 2024 (UTC)Reply

I forgor, got caught in some stuff. I'll try to get to this before too long. λ NegativeMP1 20:37, 5 May 2024 (UTC)Reply
I was unable to find any issues within the prose, and I'll be performing a spotcheck later when I have enough time to go through the Wikipedia Library to look at sourcing. λ NegativeMP1 18:27, 7 May 2024 (UTC)Reply
