Social and environmental factors influencing dietary choices among Dawenkou culture sites, Late Neolithic China

Yu Dong et al.

Summary: This study investigates dietary variations at middle and late Dawenkou sites using stable isotopic, archaeobotanical, and archaeozoological analysis. Results show significant synchronic and diachronic variations among and within sites during the middle and late Dawenkou period. Multiple factors, including environmental and social factors, contribute to this variability.

The origins of agriculture: Intentions and consequences

Glynis Jones et al.

Summary: The synthesis of a large programme of plant ecological research suggests that ecological processes and unintended consequences of human actions may have played a significant role in the emergence of agriculture in western Asia, potentially more so than previously thought. The coevolutionary mechanisms between humans and plants could have been a key factor in the transition from hunter-gatherer societies to agricultural way of life.

Isotopic evidence of millet consumption in the Middle Bronze Age of East-Central Europe

Lukasz Pospieszny et al.

Summary: Broomcorn millet, one of the most important plants in pre-history, was domesticated in China and spread throughout Eurasia in the Bronze Age. Stable isotope evidence suggests that people in upland regions consumed millet during the Bronze Age, potentially introduced through the Carpathians. An increase in the economic importance of millet in Lesser Poland may have been due to a significant growth in human populations.

Stable isotopes reveal intensive pig husbandry practices in the middle Yellow River region by the Yangshao period (7000-5000 BP)

Quan Zhang et al.

Summary: Research shows that domestic pigs in Neolithic China primarily consumed millet, with an increasing trend of millet foddering throughout the Yangshao period. Evidence suggests close management of pigs by humans, indicating an intensification of Neolithic pig husbandry in the middle Yellow River region during this period.
