DNA taken from the wisdom tooth of a European hunter-gatherer has given scientists a glimpse of modern humans before the rise of farming. The Mesolithic man, who lived in Spain around 7,000 years ago, had an unusual mix of blue eyes, black or brown hair and dark skin, according to analyses of his genetic make-up.

Which of these foods would the Mesolithic man find difficult to digest?
Foods containing lactose Foods lacking sufficient starch Foods from farms Foods that are spicy
