Have you read Bruce Pascoe's Dark Emu - I found that fascinating in the discussion of agriculture of the Australian Aboriginal people - and it is a far more recent book so I would also like to hear Flannery's opinion.

In their interactions with Native Americans, it's really apparent these guys didn't get their culture at all (some of their practices -- controlled burns, for example -- are similar to what you discuss).

If they kept the <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fire-stick_farming" rel="nofollow">Fire-Stick-Farming</a> the horrible fires hadn´t happened.<br />But it´s not a nice sight for tourists, hence government stopped the controlled burning, how dumb.<br />They build houses, they build Aborigine-villages, like Finke, and what did we find.<br />They sit in front of the houses, they hate Iris Flaviahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11147576380055530230noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-37695777.post-7310244372579808192021-02-16T23:00:45.350-05:002021-02-16T23:00:45.350-05:00There is so much to learn from their natural way o...There is so much to learn from their natural way of life.
