One of the hypothesis regarding why and how agriculture began in the fertile crescent is because the primitive versions of grains grew in large patches and existed year round, thus people didn't need to move as much or as far, and over time the hunter gatherers started to take actions that would lead to "horticulture" (the anthropological definition) and then early agriculture.

It seems that since rivers allow for primitive irrigation, which makes the agricultural surplus possible, most civilizations grew out of river lands and into the sea thereby controlling both production and trade, thus allowing the rulers time to focus on non agricultural activities such as arts and culture as well as the availability of non farm labor for construction of buildings

It’s not just water; it’s also a reason to group together in large units that have a leader. If you notice all the civilisations in the video were near rivers that were surrounded by desert. The desert FORCED people to live together near the river where they had access to water, and as they grouped together and their population rose it became necessary for some control to be established to manage land distribution. Where you had plenty of land that people could live in you see civilisation either not occurring without outside influence (like in Europe) or it occurs much later (if at all).

Most (virtually all) early human civilisations were 'hydraulic cultures' that coalesced round the need to manage the seasonal flooding of rivers to create fertile farmland.

Always fascinating to learn about early ancient civilizations, and the humankind engine looked great

Awesome crash course on transistion of civilization. Thanks for compiling this.

One of the hypothesis for the development of agriculture (From Jared Diamond if I remember right, but it's been a while since I read Guns, Germs, and Steel) was a mutation in some grain crops to not disperse their grains upon maturity, which made them prime sources for nomadic humans to grab and eat right off the stalk. Some of the seeds would drop from the hand, some wouldn't be digested, and the latter would be defecated out with a source of fertilizer, leading to that mutation over time being selected by humans more and more as they added those locations to their nomadic routes. Eventually nomads would go semi-nomadic then with mutation sites being prime candidates for summer and winter camps to stay until the weather shifted, then finally to settle permanently as they understood more about what they were doing.

8:11 *Fun fact:* Speaking of Egypt, there's a 1983 mini-series about the end of the Egyptian Dinasties called "The Cleopatras", which takes place from the marriage of Cleopatra II with her brother Ptolemy VIII in 145 B.C. to the suicide of Mark Anthony and Cleopatra VII in 36 B.C. Unfortunely, that mini-series was heavily critized, with many stating that it was a poor edgy attempt to imitate "I, Claudius"

*Trade is also how religions/mythologies were spread. Telling ancient stories during journeys & sharing cultural differences* The very first Gods & religions (mythologies) may have originated from ancient Africa, which stemmed from Spiritually within the continent. But it's from ancient Babylon (Mesopotamia/Sumer) where we see the Abrahamic religions/mythologies begin to form themselves. Most modern day religions (mythologies) are just *plagiarisms* of the Babylon/Sumerian ones, mixed with ancient history. Same thing applies later on with ancient Egypt (Kemet) & so on. Ancient Egypt (and Ethiopia/Kush) had traded with ancient India. Therefore, India & Egypt had influenced one another. *Trade* was & still is extremely important, powerful & progressive

I do wonder what the culture clash would have looked like as formerly nomadic bands began to settle down and grow their food. But I realize that it almost certainly didn't happen all at once, someone invented a proto-farming most likely years or decades before the domestication of animals began, etc, etc. I wonder if they even know what was happening while it was happening.

I agree. The fact that many structures around the world date back to around 11,000 years ago, the fact that ancient Egyptians in 400 BC were studying an even more ancient Egypt, and the fact that the story of the City of Atlantis originates from ancient Egypt and is regarded as a true story by Plato, and the fact that we don’t truly know how old the sphinx is, why there’s a human head in the body of a cat, or who built it points to the fact that civilization is a lot older than we think it is. Many cultures have stories of a great cataclysmic flood that wiped out the civilizations that were “ancient” to our own ancient civilizations, all pointing back to around 11,000 years ago when gobekli tepe was constructed. With so much of the earth still unexplored by archeologists I think it’s silly to come up with a conclusive timeline of human civilization, we were already smart enough to build mega structures 11,000 years ago of course we already had towns and cities that have been lost to time. Mesopotamia is just the first major civilization since the cataclysmic flood, not the first ever. We often think we’d see more signs of civilizations that old but it would be very hard to. Even since ancient Roman times the very ground level of the city of Rome has risen substantially, burying entire sections of the city under new soil. Who’s to say the kind of topographic changes that could happen over 11,000 years?
