The earliest surviving _written_ source.  Plato claimed that the story
  predated him by about 9000 years, but there may be insufficient
  corroborating evidence to support that claim, so I may have chosen
  a poor example.

You got me again ... at least I think so.  My last biology class
  was over thirty years ago, and probably not advanced enough to
  address your concern properly anyway.

It's been a couple of years since I devoted any browsing time to
  the subject, and I can't come up with my original links, since
  they died with my last desktop computer.

This one's not too bad, but certainly not as good as the ones I
  was studying at the time:

All things considered, I would say that you schooled me rather
  handily, whether or not that was your intention.  Well done, sir!
