Cattle Before Crops: The Beginnings of Food Production in AfricaJournal of World Prehistory - Tập 16 - Trang 99-143 - 2002
Fiona Marshall, Elisabeth Hildebrand
In many areas of the world, current theories for agricultural origins emphasize
yield as a major concern during intensification. In Africa, however, the need
for scheduled consumption shaped the development of food production. African
cattle were domesticated during the tenth millennium BP by delayed-return
Saharan hunter-gatherers in unstable, marginal environments where predictable
access to res... hiện toàn bộ
Early West African Metallurgies: New Data and Old OrthodoxyJournal of World Prehistory - Tập 22 - Trang 415-438 - 2009
Augustin F. C. Holl
The debate on West African metallurgies cannot be properly understood without
reference to the colonial template that featured Africa as the receiving partner
in all crucial social, economic, and technological development. The interesting
debate that took place in West Africa during the Colonial Period was more
meta-theoretical than factual. These conflicting glosses, despite their lack of
empiric... hiện toàn bộ
Tốc độ thuần hóa đo lường ở lúa mì và lúa mạch hoang dã dưới canh tác nguyên thủy và những hệ lụy khảo cổ học Dịch bởi AI Journal of World Prehistory - Tập 4 - Trang 157-222 - 1990
Gordon C. Hillman, M. Stuart Davies
Nông sản ngũ cốc đầu tiên của con người (hoặc có thể nói là của phụ nữ) được
gieo trồng từ hạt thu thập từ các quần thể hoang dã, và trong quá trình canh
tác, việc thuần hóa đã xảy ra. Các thí nghiệm đo lường tốc độ thuần hóa cho thấy
rằng ở các loại cây lương thực hoang dã như lúa mì einkorn, lúa mì emmer và lúa
mạch dưới các hệ thống chăn nuôi nguyên thủy: (a) việc thuần hóa chỉ diễn ra khi

From Labour Control to Surplus Appropriation: Landscape Changes in the Neolithization of Southwestern KoreaJournal of World Prehistory - Tập 27 - Trang 263-275 - 2014
Jangsuk Kim
The transformation of sociopolitical landscapes during the Mumun period
(1300–100 BC) in southwest Korea is evidenced by major shifts in monumentality,
mortuary activities and storage practices. This transformation is argued to
represent one of the final stages in an extended process of Korean
Neolithization that began much earlier with the adoption of pottery by
hunter-gatherers and later saw the... hiện toàn bộ
The lower paleolithic of the Near EastJournal of World Prehistory - Tập 8 - Trang 211-265 - 1994
Ofer Bar-Yosef
The Near East forms the geographic crossroads between Africa, Asia and Europe
and was certainly a main route for the dispersal of Homo erectusinto Eurasia.
The study of Lower Paleolithic sites in this region and in the neighboring
Caucasus area sheds some light on several potential colonization events. Sites
such as ‘Ubeidiya (Jordan Valley) and Dmanisi (Georgia) suggest the early
sorties took pla... hiện toàn bộ
The Neolithic and ‘Pastoralism’ Along the Nile: A Dissenting ViewJournal of World Prehistory - Tập 32 - Trang 251-285 - 2019
Sandro Salvatori, Donatella Usai
A largely accepted paradigm in African recent prehistory considers pastoralism
to be the main subsistence source of food-producing communities along the
Sudanese Nile valley from the 6th millennium cal BC onwards. This paradigm is
constraining the development of a wider theoretical perspective that assumes,
instead, a regionally differentiated picture of the economic and social
organisation of loc... hiện toàn bộ
Bronze Age Globalisation and Eurasian Impacts on Later Jōmon Social ChangeJournal of World Prehistory - Tập 34 - Trang 121-158 - 2021
Mark J. Hudson, Ilona R. Bausch, Martine Robbeets, Tao Li, J. Alyssa White, Linda Gilaizeau
From northern China, millet agriculture spread to Korea and the Maritime Russian
Far East by 3500–2700 BC. While the expansion of agricultural societies across
the Sea of Japan did not occur until around 900 BC, the intervening period saw
major transformations in the Japanese archipelago. The cultural florescence of
Middle Jōmon central Honshu underwent a collapse and reorganisation into more
