SC - European Food

I believe it was Murkial who wrote:

And subsequently Brandu responded with:

I would also suggest the rather well-written book:

    Ross, Ann and Robins, Don. The Life and Death of a Druid Prince:
    The Story of Lindow Man, an Archaeological Sensation.

Lest anyone think this is not food related, let me assure
you that in all its grizzly exhumation details, it more
than measures up to topic concerning food. The authors
use some very convincing arguments based not only on the
condition of the body (including clothing) but also on the
contents of the stomach to argue convincingly that people
were sacrificed (in this case willingly).
