Discussion of this recently in “Archaeology” magazine, I think. I’m very fond of potatoes and quinoa.

Try your local health foods store. Quinoa is incredibly nutritious. You can use it like rice in salads or pilafs.

warning: lots and lots of huge images - vast areas of agricultural fields and canals.

They must have been growing crops here for a very very long time, and feeding millions of people.

I think we have many archaeological/anthropology suprizes waiting in South America. Yeah. It's funny how a species that walks slowly, and speaks thousands of different mutually incompressible languages can abruptly and simultaneously "discover" agriculture world wide...

Yeah. It's funny how a species that walks slowly, and speaks thousands of different mutually incompressible languages can abruptly and simultaneously "discover" agriculture world wide...The species must first discover one of these.

I dont want to play the early button game, he said, but the temporal gap between the Old and New World, in terms of a first pulse toward civilization, is beginning to close. This also tends to invalidate Jared Diamond's Guns, Germs and Steel thesis.

"This also tends to invalidate Jared Diamond's Guns, Germs and Steel thesis." This book is a bit too PC for me.
