Chapter IX A PLAN WITH GOOD TEETH IN IT

Thousands of years ago, a boy lived beside a water hole in southern France. His food for the most part was the flesh of the animals that came in the early morning to drink from the water hole. Sometimes he used a sharp stick to spear fish in the near-by stream. Sometimes he ate wild nuts and berries, and the inside green bark of the young growing trees. He did not drink milk, and he had neither a dentist nor a toothbrush. Yet he had strong even teeth. What did he do to grow such strong even teeth?

This boy did not write a history to tell us what he did and what he ate, or what he wore. He and his family, however, had a way of leaving things lying about on the floor of the cave in which they lived—spear points, bones of animals which they had eaten, and the tools with which they worked. Men whose work it is to find how these people of long ago lived, have dug the history of the boy out of the rubbish under the floor of the cave.
