Domesticating

This was the Introduction to Anthropology 2017 comment page for two readings about plant and animal domestication.

• Lavenda and Schultz chapter 7, “Why Did Humans Settle Down?” in Anthropology: What Does it Mean to be Human?
• The Worst Mistake in the History of the Human Race by Jared Diamond (1999)

For a 2021 update, see Auditioning Domestication.
