    My not very generous guess is someone wanted to give the impression of something being really old without a clue of what really old is.

    Like it wouldn’t surprise me if it turned out bread was accidentally invented when someone screwed up an attempt to make beer.

      Hell, some people have theorized that civilization started because you need to settle down for a while to brew beer.
