Abstract

Abstract It is widely agreed that humans made the transition from a nomadic huntergatherer lifestyle to one dependant largely on agriculture about 10,000 years ago in the Pre-Pottery Neolithic Near East. Archeological evidence of the Neolithic founder crops (einkorn wheat, emmer wheat, barley, lentil, pea, bitter vetch, chickpea, and flax) has been traced to a small area within the ‘Fertile Crescent’ near the upper Tigris and Euphrates rivers in what today is southeast Turkey and northern Syria (1).
