Question 1
Which occurred earlier?
Meketre brewery model
Pasteur brewing research
Show answer & reasoning
Answer: Meketre brewery model
The Meketre model is ancient Egyptian; Pasteur's brewing work is nineteenth century.
Nuance: Chronology questions preserve the source event's precision and claim boundaries.
Evidence: Model Bakery and Brewery from the Tomb of Meketre · Études sur la bière by Louis Pasteur, 1876
Question 2
Which evidence anchor is earliest?
Raqefet Cave cereal-fermentation evidence
Meketre brewery model
Show answer & reasoning
Answer: Raqefet Cave cereal-fermentation evidence
Raqefet's archaeological context is prehistoric and earlier than the Middle Kingdom model.
Nuance: Raqefet is approximate/contested evidence; earlier does not mean an uncontested first-ever beer claim.
Evidence: Fermented beverage and food storage in 13,000 y-old stone mortars at Raqefet Cave, Israel · Model Bakery and Brewery from the Tomb of Meketre
