That would also push back the discovery of beer.

They've discovered the container of Quaker Oats cereal I've had in my cupboard all this time.

[Red Badger]

I wonder if they'll try and germinate them?.............

[DannyTN]

Why do they believe it's 11,000 years old? This goes against the grain.

[Fester Chugabrew]

This thread has a way of making me thirsty.

[razorback-bert]

Probaly, just some old acid heads letting their grain go moldy.

[TASMANIANRED]

Someone failed to sow their wild oats.

Thanks Blam. A multirow barley sample was RC dated (non-calibrated) to 14,000 years BP. And since that was at least ten years ago, the sample must be 14,010 years old by now. ;')

recently wrote about their discovery of 10,000-year-old cultivated figs at the same Jordan Valley site.

So, for the first THOUSAND YEARS, no one could make a fig newton. Not my kind of place.

[F.J. Mitchell]

Is it too late to turn this grain into extremely pre-aged Bourbon?

[tarheelswamprat]

a cache of 120,000 wild oat and 260,000 wild barley grains...

What I'd like to know is, who counted them? /grin
