The male body – said to date back to between 2900-2500BC – was discovered buried in a way normally reserved only for women of the Corded Ware culture in the Copper Age.

The skeleton was found in a Prague suburb in the Czech Republic with its head pointing eastwards and surrounded by domestic jugs, rituals only previously seen in female graves.
“From history and ethnology, we know that people from this period took funeral rites very seriously so it is highly unlikely that this positioning was a mistake,” said lead archaeologist Kamila Remisova Vesinova.

“Far more likely is that he was a man with a different sexual orientation, homosexual or transsexual,” she added.

According to Corded Ware culture which began in the late Stone Age and culminated in the Bronze Age, men were traditionally buried lying on their right side with their heads pointing towards the west, and women on their left sides with their heads pointing towards the east. Both sexes would be put into a crouching position.

From what I’ve read concerning anthropological insights…those of “two-way spirit” were considered sacred…some were “medicine people”…and revered as a holy person. Many of our Native American tribes viewed such people who exhibited behavior of both sexes. I believe the Oracle of Delphi was a castrated male follower of Cybel…the men castrated themselves for her.
 
I saw the article some time last week. I’m always interested in the subject of anthropolgy. However, I always question how such an assertion can be made in so certain a way. I’m sure the scientist who is saying this is quite knowledgable and makes good points. However, its conjecture at best. There are many articles out now criticizing and rejecting the conclusion. I haven’t read them in detail just the headlines and blurbs. I told my wife about it over the weekend and joked that this would happen. Maybe I’m psychic!
 
People who are embracing the homosexual lifestyle are everywhere these days.

If television is proof of current statistics, about one in every 10 people on Earth are actively pursuing male on male and female on female sexual relationships.

Those numbers are so skewed. I know of lots of men pursuing the female on female sexual relationships. The actual numbers participating in same sex activity is much lower.

A 1993 Janus Report estimated that nine percent of men and five percent of women had more than “occasional” homosexual relationships. The 2000 U.S. Census Bureau found that homosexual couples constitute less than 1% of American households. The Family Research Report says “around 2-3% of men, and 2% of women, are homosexual or bisexual.”
 
The above article has some competition:

Scientists speak out to discredit ‘gay caveman’ media reports

(CNN) – Reports that surfaced last week about the remains of a “gay caveman” found in the Czech Republic have prompted scientists to take on an unlikely foe – an overhyped news media that may be overblowing the archaeological find.

“Dudes! I could be wrong, but I think that to have a ‘gay caveman,’ you need a skeleton that is both gay and a caveman. And this ain’t either!” John Hawks, an associate professor of anthropology at University of Wisconsin-Madison, wrote on his blog in bold type…

I’m afraid you’re using the bogus statistics put together by Alfred Kinsey in the early 50s. Study after study has shown that the incidence of homosexuality is between one and 3%, even lower among women.

I should have used more sarcasm in my post. I’m aware that very few people are engaged in male on male and female on female sexual acts. “However, if television is proof of …”
 
What I don’t get was the fact that no one was there to actually see the caveman initiate homosexual acts, I mean there is no physical evidence to prove that a dead lifeless body initiate in homosexual activity. It’s way to out there to speculate that. I think it’s just another way for the media to push justifications for homosexual actions. I’m not condemning people who are attracted to the same sex, but when you initiate in the act of fornication with the same gender that’s where the line stops.

Is that why my sarcasm detector was going off the charts…?

I understand he was also found to have been buried with Liza Minnelli CDs…
