In case you ever wondered if baby bottles were a recent human invention, the answer is evidently no:
Archaeologists have made a rare find of a number of medieval baby bottles at excavations in Veliky Novgorod, an ancient city in northwest Russia, a scientist said on Monday.My wife -- a middle school social studies teacher -- tells me that the ancient Greeks and Romans also used little infant bottles engraved with important slogans like "don't spill." She cannot, however, tell me if there were ancient equivalents to Elmo and Dora the Explorer."Similar bottles are rarely found in excavations, and here we have already discovered... three of them,"
Medieval Slavs made feeding bottles by attaching leather bags to the wider part of cow horns. A baby drank the milk from a hole made on the tip of a horn.
