I hope someone looks into liquid storage container development. Ya have to store all that beer somewhere. Man grows grain...man makes beer. Man needs big vessels to store beer. Ergo pottery evolves in storage devices.
Beer...its a History Thing.
Let the games begin...
This view remains a minority one, with most archaeologists still accepting that man had not begun farming cultivated crops at this time, so the stage is set for a good old academic stoush.
Are some suggesting that we went straight from gathering in the wild to cultivating genetically engineered crops? Doesn't it seem logical that we would have begun cultivating the wild crops that were available, and later learned to graft and otherwise engineer the crops? Unless.... Space aliens popped in and gave us more modern crops. Yeah, that's the ticket.
Let me know if you wish to be added or removed from this ping list.
"Recent use of dendrochronology for calibration of radiocarbon-derived dates suggests that they deviate increasingly from actual calendar dates, from an error of about 200 years at 1000 B.C. up to an error of about 900 years at 5,000 radiocarbon years B.C. . .Although calibration curves are designed to bring radiocarbon dates in line with actual dates, the limits of these curves currently do not extend earlier than about 5200 B.C."
