    I consider "recorded" to refer implicitly to written records, so I tend to exclude cave paintings and scratchings on bones.

    Everyone knows you need a "pick-up line". My favorite from that era was "UGGGGGGGGGGGGGH!". Preferably written on the rock you intend to knock her over the head with.
    @Brennus can elucidate.

    Arguably the first overtly sexual images are the Venus figurines from the Upper Palaeolithic. These sculptures represent female bodies with overtly sexual features such as large buttocks, swollen breasts and engorged vulva:

    One the first artefacts to actually depict the act of sexual intercourse, however, are the Ain Sakhri Lovers from near Bethlehem, which dates from the Natufian Mesolithic:

    Both of these examples pre-date the first written records by several millennia.

    lol, very true. OK, back to discussing the Twitter updates. But if anyone wishes to discuss sex and archaeology, although it is not my main area of study, I am happy to do so in a separate thread.

    The members and testers working together on bug hunting are indeed squashing them at a very impressive speed! At the rate we're going there are ALWAYS more than a 2 updates every day. They deserve tons of praise for their efforts!

    If he thinks he's safe in Russia from the K.E.B (our 'special' forces) then he's quite mistaken.

    The current tradition dominating "professional" game design is to launch a new game while it is still in obviously an unfinished, barely playable state.

    Y'all are doing yeoman's work on this here mod. But, to get your "professional" creds started, I think you should release it to the public now.
