Brilliant lecture, concise and informative.

Explained with a lot of enthousiasm. Thank you!

I really agree 💯 with this public lecture and I request this lecture need to held too all over the world, cos in modern day society undermining agriculture sectore which is ignoring the foundation of human civilzation history. ✊🇹🇱✊ I Will always support this channel in my entire online learning. My support from East Timor🇹🇱🇹🇱🇹🇱

Easily the most important revolutions in human history.

This presentation was amazing! Thank you!

Nice explanation. But the "healthy hunter gatherer" vs. the "stressed farmer" paradigm ignores one big fact. HG's could at any time starve to death. They knew this. No fridge. Find food daily or die. Grains could be stored, domestic animals are in the pen. This is a big deal.

Great lecture. However why does the lecturer use different formats of eras BP BCE?

Thank you so much for this great lecture

Great video, thanks.

What a great video! Very interesting, thank you for the video.

It’s funny to see him spin awkwardly every minute to a different camera angle.

As Lindybeige said: "This agriculture experiment isn't really working for humans, it's been going on for only 12000 years..."

The video is good on information supply but i failed to understand the need of the presenter to keep rotating every 2 minutes in the video.....it was distracting and gave a bad taste to the video.....editors please aviod this!

A good talk, which I appreciated especially for its appreciation of the intermediate steps from "classic" hunting & foraging to full domestication, and its attention to the southern continent (I wasn't aware of fire-stick farming, so there's another example of paracultivation intermediate between "pure" foraging and agriculture). I'm not convinced though that sedentarisation and farming appreciably lowered life expectancy overall: the supposed paleolithic lifespans often thrown around in fact relate to modern non-farming populations after centuries of interaction with sedentary neighbours, while reconstruction of likely fertility & mortality in pre-modern food-producing societies suggests little difference. Beware lurid tales of life expectancy plunging as the neolithic spread. The explanation of Aboriginal Australian non-embrace of farming is a persuasive one. I wonder though if the drought conditions of the Ice Age (necessitating the abandonment of much of the interior) also left a cultural imprint, warning against reliance on more intensive exploitation of the land for which the environmental conditions might not persist.

Awesome !

Thank you

Thanks a lot. Great explanation.

Foraging sucks because they savaging around and little foo is often find but another option is hunting but it takes time to hunt a good pray

Ohalo was settled by Kebarans or proto-Kebarans. Natufians didn't exist 25,000 years ago. I think the later spread of agriculture largely because of competitive advantage in conjunction with other technologies, basically being better at squatting over new lands.

Horticulture / agriculture emerged as a survival subsistence strategy. Humans DID NOT "progress" to horticulture / agriculture via better tools technology, rather, better tools / technology was the result of necessity. A Catch-22 appeared with horticulture / agriculture - the more food produced the greater the human population grew until villages emerged then towns and finally cities. Simultaneously, as human populations increased needing ever more resources biodiversity and easily obtainable raw materials declined. With agricultural-based civilization, specialization, slavery, organized warfare, poverty and perpetual strife became the way of those trapped in its illusions. The greatest catastrophe in human evolution was horticulture / agriculture that led to civilization.

great clear lecture, although (i'm very new to this topic) am hearing/reading that climate change and over population is a very simplistic dated and over used theory......

Didnt understand why the dog was so essential to be the first step of the domestication project. It might be so and evidence to be so but still...why?

Foraging requires 2km sq for each person - agriculture allows 2000 people per sq km? Not including the land for food growth!?! - incredibly misleading! Not a lecture for me!

Awesome :)

What was the global timing of the agricultural revolution ?

2:35 Bangladesh? Strange choice for an example.

I know we suck as humans but this stuff is pretty cool

indian farmers stand with all farmers - repeal all laws in india

This guy has more spin than Fox News

The wheat genome is 5x more complex than the human genome and scientists cannot explain how this hybrid seed suddenly burst onto the agri scene 10-12K years ago... #copperturnsbloodblue

Nothing. First rice grown

is this lecture from a religious institution?

If people learned where they came from, maybe they wouldn't make epochally stupid mistakes every twelve minutes of their lives. Like they do!

too much topic to cover, too wide and random
