Farming is Crucial to Civilization!

After I watched the movie I thought that farming was one of the most important things toward building a civilization because without farming and growing your own crops you have to devote lots of time into gathering from fruit or tracking down prey and killing it with a bow and arrow. But with farming you do not have to go far to collect your food and further on if you control a herd of sheep or goats, you would be able to kill it, get milk from it and plow your crops with them. Then when your not wasting as much time, you can decorate your house or make steel to help crpos or weapons.

Great post, and I like the picture. But could you add a little more information next time?

Aidan, great thinking and post. Let's take this and your thinking a bit further.

You wrote, "Then when your not wasting as much time, you can decorate your house or make steel to help crpos or weapons." Based upon this thinking, predict what a civilization with more time on their hands will do? Then, will this be a positive or negative for the civilization? Explain. Continue your thinking.

If you are interested, perhaps you should check out a copy of the book, "Guns, Germs, and Steel" from the library.

Please respond to these questions in your next post.
