  • Agrarianism begins first in the "Fertile Cresent," which we call Iraq today, and that began 7,500 years ago. Not 10,000 BC. That is a huge difference. Plants that were domesticated were mutant and they are not edible for 65% of the human population. See my book, "PB's Neo-Dieter's Handbook, When We Lost Our Nutritional Roots; Where To Find These Foods Today,"

  • You obviously haven't done your homework. 7500 BC is a date that is out of date. The earliest sites to begin practicing agriculture are at Mureybet on the Upper Euphrates, c. 9500 b.c. But Gordon Hillman found evidence for domesticated rye and einkorn going back in this same region, in this case at Abu Hureyra, even earlier, circa 11,500 BC. See Jacques Cauvin's Agriculture and the Birth of the Gods.
