Abstract

Drinking in Europe
Analysis of Neolithic pottery has shown that alcohol has been brewed for at least 10,000 years. Binge drinking, sexual excess and vomiting feature in the Epic of Gilgamesh - among one of the earliest works of literature (around 4000 BC). In Europe, the Celtic devotion to feasting and drunkenness was noted by Caesar and was contrasted with the Roman habit of regular wine drinking by the Venerable Bede in the 8th century.
