How did cavemen procreate?

[1976_Child]

What position did caveman use to inseminate cavewoman? Would it have been the typical 'mount' as practised by the rest of the mammal kingdom or would he have been more inventive?

 

Maybe after a particularly succulent mammoth dinner he would have rewarded her with a good old spread the legs and 'think of England' missionary position. Or perhaps if the cavewoman was not so interested in caveman's attentions he would have had to chase her Benny Hill style around the cave.. No doubt to the amusement of the rest of the tribe.

 

And would their cave-sex have been conducted in private or in the main cave in full view of the whole tribe?

And would it have been with a relative?

Sorry to say this thread conjures up a mental picture of Fred & Wilma Flintstone...

I've corrected that for you...

There should be a reality show experiment that answers these questions.

Well it cant have been the missionary position because missionaries hadnt been invented then.

 

I imagine it would have been the old favourite, knock 'em out and bang them from whatever angle they're lying at. In fact, that still works for me.

I think the film 'Quest for fire' ca. 1980 is the definitive piece to answer your question.
