Seems like it's too late for even the modern paleo diet to result in the kind of "palaeofaeces" they are studying.
When you think about it isn't every diet a "paleo" diet eventually once it's been superceded by something else for a millennium or two?
The faeces could end up standing the test of time more so than the nutritional trend.
What are they going to say about us in the year 3021?
I wonder how much data does an average human poop hold...
