The origins of bread making
The origins of bread making had long been thought to be associated with the advent of agriculture and cereal domestication, but when a new study was published back in 2018, it changed the way we viewed our ancient ancestors and also how we defined the term ‘hunter-gatherer’.
The paper looks at the archaeobotanical evidence for the origins of bread, and incredibly, it shows that bread was being produced 14,400 years ago at a Natufian hunter-gather site in northeastern Jordan.
The findings showed that humans were making bread at least 4,000 years before the emergence of agriculture, with the Natufians making flat bread-like products with stone ovens around 2,000 years before the Younger Dryas cooling.
Watch this video to learn more about this fantastic discovery, and how it is yet more evidence that the people of the Levants and Anatolia were already well-advanced long before the Younger Dryas and how everything was already in place for civilisation to flourish.
