nnnnOs humanos já estavam usando drogas alucinógenas na Espanha há cerca de 3.000 anos, revelou uma nova pesquisa publicada na revista científica Scientific Reports nesta quinta-feira (06).
nnnnUma simples mecha de cabelo foi suficiente para fornecer o que se acredita ser a primeira evidência direta do uso de drogas na Europa, ainda no final da Idade do Bronze.
nnnnUm grupo de pesquisadores espanhóis e chilenos analisou os fios de cabelo e detectou neles substâncias alcaloides procedentes de plantas. O estudo, liderado por Elisa Guerra, da Universidade de Valladolid, na Espanha, aponta que essas drogas poderiam ter sido usadas como parte de cerimônias rituais.
nnnnO cabelo estava escondido na caverna de Es Càrritx, na ilha espanhola de Menorca. Descoberta em 1995, a caverna abrigava uma câmara usada como espaço funerário, onde foram encontrados pequenos recipientes cilíndricos de madeira com cabelos que datam de cerca de 2.900 anos.
nnnnO estudo analisou apenas alguns dos fios disponíveis, alguns com até 13 centímetros de comprimento. Encontrar cabelos preservados daquela época no Mediterrâneo ocidental é “extremamente raro”, afirmam os pesquisadores.

Nice post. I learn something more difficult on completely different blogs everyday. It’s going to at all times be stimulating to read content from other writers and practice a little bit something from their store. I?d want to use some with the content material on my weblog whether you don?t mind. Natually I?ll offer you a link on your internet blog. Thanks for sharing.
Woah! I’m really enjoying the template/theme of this site. It’s simple, yet effective. A lot of times it’s very difficult to get that “perfect balance” between superb usability and visual appearance.

We would also like to say that most of those that find themselves with no health insurance are normally students, self-employed and people who are without a job. More than half with the uninsured are under the age of Thirty-five. They do not feel they are in need of health insurance since they are young and healthy. Their own income is often spent on real estate, food, and also entertainment. Lots of people that do work either entire or in their free time are not made available insurance by way of their jobs so they proceed without as a result of rising cost of health insurance in the usa. Thanks for the ideas you reveal through your blog.
