Scientist believe that the first injection was actually performed by Palaeolithic Man. There is strong evidence to support this conclusion by a recent archaeological finds in both Asian and African sites. It is believed that Palaeolithic Man used a combination of an ancient ancestor of our modern horses' rib bone shaving and his own pubic hair to create this crude form of the hypodermic needles that we know of today. There are also some evidence found in cave drawings, with bent over figures getting things rammed into their behinds. This was once thought of as evidence for homosexual behaviour, but has since been discounted.
