  • Neanderthals and Homo sapiens first mated tens of thousands of years ago.
  • Under the right conditions, some dogs – the super-scenters – can smell you some 12 miles away.
  • Nine out of 10 mothers of newborns, after having spent as little as 10 minutes with their babies, can identify their infant by smell.

  • The first multiplication tables were used around 2000 B.C.E. by the Babylonians.
