Was it used defensively by cavemen?
I don’t think we had caveman 2500 years ago
I think we have many cavemen nowadays, so there were probably many 2500 years ago.
Fair enough
Hard to believe that in 500 years a 2500 year old hand gesture will change meaning.
To add to this I read years ago how the English phase “fuck you” got associated with the gesture. It comes The Hundred Years War between Britian and France and was originally “Pluck You!” but changed over time.
This was the first search result and shares the story well: https://www.urbandictionary.com/define.php?term=PLUCK YOU
