Neolithic Revolution: How Agriculture Was Invented
1w ago01:05:28Tap to summarizeIn this episode, I tell you about the transition from the nomadic lifestyle of hunters and gatherers to the sedentary life of the first agricultural communities. We will examine the theories that explain this change, how it took place, and its consequences. Some of these consequences were counterintuitive. For example, the Agricultural Revolution initially led to a deterioration in health and life expectancy. However, it was also a crucial step that accelerated technical progress and dramatically changed human communities, their politics, their economies, and even the way human beings saw their place in nature and in the world.
