建造巨石阵的古人也吃甜食？

英格兰遗产委员会（ English Heritage ）发现，巨石阵当年的建造者吃过甜食，包括采来的水果和坚果。

 

Researchers already knew that the builders of the monument, which dates back to 2,500 BC, had eaten pork, beef and dairy.

巨石阵的历史可追溯到公元前2500年，研究人员已知当时建造这处遗迹的人吃过猪肉、牛肉和奶制品。

 

But this is the first time that excavations¹ at Durrington Walls have shown that they also gathered and cooked hazelnuts and fruit, such as sloe berries and crab² apples. 

然而，德灵顿垣墙的挖掘工作第一次显示，建造者还采集并烹制了榛子和黑刺李莓果、酸苹果等水果。

 

Researchers believe that the charred³ plant remains⁴ suggest recipes may have been followed. They say treats, such as an early version of the mince⁵ pie, could have been cooked using a flat stone or ceramic⁶ pot, heated in the embers of a fire.

研究人员认为，烧焦的植物残渣表明这些食物有可能是按照菜谱制作的。他们指出，建造者吃过一种圣诞百果馅饼的早期版本，这类甜食可能是用扁平的石头或陶器在余烬中加热烤制而成的。
