Really, man... believe what you want. I give two shits.
adequate food supplies to meet demand?

do you even have an inkling of how dumb you sound? how can you simultaneously be constantly chasing food out of necessity to survive AND also SETTLE because you "have adequate food supplies to meet demand". funny that you would use the term "hunter - gatherer" and not understand that "hunting" and "gathering" requires you to go do it... "hunting" is not the act of animals coming to you and throwing themselves on the fire to be eaten.

seriously!? what the fuck... did you learn human history from Bugs Bunny cartoons?



and you're right... no one knows what happened ... well, no one except for all of those in the modern world who are silly enough to believe in the extensive archaeological records and data to date.


again... let me help you with some VERY basic anthropological facts.

people began to farm out of necessity (you know... basic feast or famine type stuff). they learned to grow food. with growing food, they began to settle... with that, began to learn that certain animals could be domesticated as a food source and that they could grow the food to feed them.

much more is known about these simple facts and the chain of events and timelines around the world than is known about the origins of alcohol and its first uses and intentional creation.

but according to you, "neolithic era" is synonymous with "fermentation" and "alcohol" and growing food and raising animals was just a "perk" of settling down to get drunk. you go further to assert that its a "widely held opinion" of events while citing beer sites as a source.

its definately one of the dumber things ever posted on this board... but in a weird way, thats a huge achievement here, so i guess you've made your mark anyway.
