The Ljungavik Dog: A Mesolithic dog burial

A place for majestic STEMLORD peacocking, as well as memes about the realities of working in a lab.
Rules
This is a science community. We use the Dawkins definition of meme.
I feel like the myth existing in cultures around the world from Mesopotamia to the Americas gives it credence. It makes sense that a "world-changing event" would work its way into various disparate cultures myths.
Or it's because people all around the world always lived next to water and encountered floods.
Absolutely, water being such a vital part of life pretty much ensures it'll be referenced. Kind of the same thing as various sun gods in cultures around the world.
