Alan D. Eames
Alan Duane Eames (April 16, 1947 – February 10, 2007) was an American writer and an anthropologist of beer, who was described as the "Indiana Jones of Beer".
==Beer anthropologist==
Eames acquired a reputation as the "Indiana Jones of beer" in reference to his global quest to learn about the origins of beer and the role it played in ancient societies and cultures.〔 Eames visited 44 countries. In Egypt he found hieroglyphics about beer, and travelled on the Amazon River in search of a lost black brew. In the Andes, Eames trekked in search of a brew made from strawberries that were the size of baseballs.〔
Eames claimed to have found the world's ''"oldest beer advertisement"'' on a Mesopotamian stone tablet that dated to roughly 4000 B.C.〔 The tablet depicted a headless woman with large breasts holding goblets of beer in each of her hands. Eames claimed that the tagline to the tablet was "Drink Elba, the beer with the heart of a lion."〔 Eames believed that beer was the most feminine of drinks, and thought that ancient societies considered it a gift from a goddess rather than a god, as from the gods Ama-Gestin and Ninkasis.〔 With Professor Solomon Katz of the University of Pennsylvania, Eames formulated the theory that beer was an important factor in the creation of settled and civilised societies.〔
