I just finished the book 1491: Americas Before Columbus. It's so amazing to me that basically no one knows about the massive societies that existed in South and North America. The book provides evidence that there were millions of people living in communities in the Americas. At least in US schools, we really only learned about the Native American Tribes, Columbus, and the Spanish. The culture and people that lived here are basically unknown to most people living here now.

@@ScorpionXXXVII Maybe it's the history program at my school, but I learned a LOT about ancient America in my history classes in high school?? I can remember that the Olmec, Toltec, Maya, Aztec/Mexica, Norte Chico, Moche, Inca, Zapotec, Choco, Mississippian, Ancestral Pueblo (known then as Anasazi), Quechua, and I'm sure a number of others I've forgotten were mentioned, if not studied in-depth. It seems pretty well-known that Pre-Columbian America supported large cultures, I even remember reading that Tenochtitlán was among the largest cities in the world by population in the 1500s.

Hey, I'm not sure if you have read it, but the book Farmers of Forty Centuries by F. H. King is a must read. In 1900, the author, a British Agriculturalist, traveled China, Japan and Korea. One of his notes is how farmers harvested ripe grains by pulling the plant from the soil. They'd rinse, cut off and dry the root ball. This explains many points about farming. One, lack of grain harvesting tools. They just used a knife, not a scythe or sickle. No roots in soil meant less need to till the soil. And the roots were used for cooking fuel. Fast and hot, which is believed to be a reason wok cooking became prominent. I recommend the Dover Publications version as it has many of his original photos.

Domestication isn't an on-off switch either. Probably for a long time there were just a bunch of chickens living off of the primary refuse, and they got kind of chill about being around people over the generations. That could happen with occasional, gradual progress for a long time.

In India there is state called Arunachal Pradesh where cultivataion of millets was an indiginious practice since early generation but now it is slowly declining and less popular. Now it is high time to encourage millet cultivation and revolutinized.

As a Taoist I agree with the slow trap hypothesis, with hunters being seduced by carbohydrates and crafts.

I think what drove early farming more than anything was beer. I don't think anything else would make the extra work and lower overall quality of life worth it.

What is bearable and comfortable is entirely relative to our previous experiences, what would be considered hellish for us could be normal for them and what we take for granted could be rare luxuries that would be cherished memories. The people of the future will probably look back to our time and wonder how we endured and didn't just off ourselves from the strain, just like we view our past.

Different Chinese history as British is that vast land of China is playing ground of archeology discovery, series "cultures" unearthed one after another along the millenniums.

I love Chinese ppl, culture, Creed and food. The only thing that makes me really upset is that even these days they r still eating dogs. But this new generations r changing it by saying no more eating dogs. Im with them. Anyway... Thats interesting how they have kept their culture and costumes to these days... Awesome. I live learning about other cultures. Xo

Vielen Dank für diesen Beitrag. Es sieht demnach ganz so aus, als wären die Entwicklungsschritte der Menschheit in Europa und Ostasien parallel verlaufen. Da ist eigentlich kein nennenswerte Unterschied für mich erkennbar. Die Schlüsselfrage ist sowohl in Westeuropa, als auch in Ostasien: "Warum nahmen die Menschen einen deutlich schlechteren Lebensstil an? Und wann begann die Geschlechtertrennung? In Westeuropa wurden die Höfe grundsätzlich an die Söhne vererbt, während die Frauen mit 17 das Haus verlassen mussten und eigentlich nur noch als Gebärmaschinen und Arbeitskräfte dienten
