Warfare, Advancement, and Revisionism

This week we talk about two regions of what is now Mexico, the Tehuacán and Oaxaca Valleys. I discuss how each of these regions show clear evidence of continued hunter gather economies steadily beginning to embrace early domesticated strains of local cucubrita, beans, fruits, nuts as well as teosinte (zea maize) from the nearby Balsas River basin.I also discussed the science article about dating at an important South American site in Chile: https://www.science.org/doi/10.1126/science.adw9217?utm_campaign=ScienceMagazine&utm_medium=ownedSocial&utm_source=twitterTwitter/X: https://x.com/WarAdRevPodYouTube: https://youtu.be/jC4PD1vkqYU

This week we talk about the Michelsberg Culture as we end our discussions of Neolithic central Europe for this season. Now I know some of you will ask, "Hey what about the Funnelbeaker culture?" Well after diving into it and reading my notes I feel like discussion of them makes much more sense thematically next season. I meant to explain this in the episode but I forgot to mention it. I'll give a bit more detail on this next episode.We also cover several hunter gatherer groups in Scandinavia and how the change in the climate and interactions with peoples in the Balkans led to changes in their lifestyle. Also sometime between the 29-30 minute mark I said Balkans twice when I meant the Baltic. My bad.Twitter/X: https://x.com/WarAdRevPodYouTube: https://youtu.be/KK0vHgQhj3w
