"The use of saliva to sharpen a frozen fecal blade, as the original account describes (Davis, 1998), might also be examined. " It seems to me that some Inuit tried to troll the researchers :)

There are a great many other unconventional materials you <i>can</i> make knives out of, though: <a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.youtube.com&#x2F;channel&#x2F;UCg3qsVzHeUt5_cPpcRtoaJQ">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.youtube.com&#x2F;channel&#x2F;UCg3qsVzHeUt5_cPpcRtoaJQ</a>

Two thoughts:<p>- OK, the poop knife claim in the story sounds incredibly weird, but what about using a dog&#x27;s rib cage as a sled? It would not only be too small, but there&#x27;s no way it could support a grown man&#x27;s weight. It amazes me that anybody could ever take this story as anything other than a troll.<p>- I&#x27;m fascinated by the fact that, in the discussion section, the authors spend paragraphs justifying this work on the basis of how it affects narratives about the ingenuity of indigenous and prehistoric peoples. Says so much about the state of science.

This directly links to a pdf, maybe want to warn people in the title. I&#x27;m not opening a random fkn pdf about poo that just automatically downloads.

&quot;Failed to cut or slice...&quot; This is obviously a stabbing weapon. A spike would also fail to cut or slice. This is bad science.

A paper claiming that an account about shit is bullshit is, I think, the best representation of Elsevier&#x27;s presence in academia.

&gt;Knives from the ceramic molds failed to cut or slice the pig hide, leaving only streaks<p>The picture is pretty funny.
