Äh, klart som fan jag vet att det skulle varit helt omöjligt att dra ståltråd på stenåldern. Smileysarna tydde på skämtsamhet, konstigt nog. Fast finns det inte exempel på inuiter eller liknande som tillverkat bestick av metiorjärn trots att de låg på stenåldersnivå i övrigt?
The Arctic Highlanders (otherwise known as the Inughuit or Polar Eskimos) got their cutlery from meteorites, An explorer called Ross (after whom the Ross Sea is named) became the first person to encounter them. Up until that point, the Inughuit thought they were the only people on the planet.
Admiral Peary, the first person to reach the North Pole, around 70 years after Ross first reached the Arctic. Peary took from the Inughuit's: their meteorites (which he sold to a museum for US$40,000), six Inughuit children, four of whom died of Tuberculosis immediately. One of the surviving children eventually saw his parents as skeletons at the American Museum of Natural History in New York City.
