Prehistoric Origins

Some scholars believe the story originated in Paleolithic times, when Cave Bears were ritually sacrificed and their skulls set up in shrines deep in their caverns, with food offerings presented in front of the skulls for the benefit of the bears' spirits. In the original version of the story, some impious offender committed sacrilege by eating of the offering, and was torn to pieces by the vengeful spirits. Over the millennia the story was softened down and otherwise transformed. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Zanimum (talk • contribs) 12:16, 30 September 2005

That's the craziest thing I've ever heard. Who are these "scholars" who believe this? What is the source of this information?--JW1805 15:46, 30 September 2005 (UTC)

Fable Comic Book

I question the value of the Fable Comic Book version being part of the main Goldilocks article. Shouldn't that have its own page and not take up a fifth of the article on the classic nursery tale? -Kris Wright — Preceding unsigned comment added by 66.68.12.176 (talk • contribs) 16:56, 24 October 2005

Happy ending?

"One is that thereafter, Goldilocks comes and visits the bears often and plays with the baby bear."

Where did this come from please? I would love to get ahold of this version. Thank you. -mbs — Preceding unsigned comment added by 131.161.246.43 (talk • contribs) 23:13, 29 January 2006
