El análisis biomolecular de los dientes de dos cazadores-recolectores preagrícolas de Sulawesi, Indonesia (el más antiguo de 25-16 ka), sugiere succión habitual y permanencia prolongada de nueces de betel en la boca, lo que libera arecolina, sustancia psicoactiva.

Deep grooves in the teeth of two ice age hunter-gatherers from Sulawesi, Indonesia, reveal that people were habitually sucking on betel nuts for pain relief as far back as 25,000 years ago, the oldest known evidence of habitual neuroactive plant use, predating farming by tens of thousands of years.

World's oldest evidence of habitual drug use from 25,000 y ago. Hunter-gatherers sucked on betel nuts that contain a neuroactive substance. Prehistoric plant-based drugs include 10,000 yo psychedelic cactus pollen in Peru and 13,000 yo beer in Israel.

Betel nuts are the oldest known habitual-use neuroactive plant drug. Recently discovered skeletal remains suggest that ancient foragers likely used this stimulant long before farming began (16-25k years ago)! 🧪

The title of this cool new paper is accurate (dental evidence c. 25-16k BP). However, routine consumption of ethanol is likely ancient: 1) Wild chimpanzees consume perhaps the equivalent of 1.4 drinks/day from naturally fermenting fruit; 2) ADH genes are widespread🧪🧵
