Insights from Chapter 2

#1

The first being considered to be truly manlike, the Advanced Australopithecus, existed in the same parts of Africa some 500,000 years ago. The first primitive Man, Neanderthal, lived around 35,000 years ago. Modern Men, named Cro-Magnon, looked so much like us that they would be lost in the crowds of any European or American city.

The first orchard was in the Land of Israel, and it was there that the first domesticated plants and animals were created. The process of plant domestication went from wild grasses to wild cereals to cultivated cereals, followed by fruit-bearing shrubs and trees.

#6
