Western Civilization

Today in Western Civilization, we talked about how Jared Diamond was right on with his guess that people in the BC times that had successful civilizations all had the best crops, best animals to farm out of such cows, pigs and sheep. These people quickly figured out different ways of working and had different skills. Also, women were not gathering anymore, they could have more children to make the numbers in there group larger so more work could be done in the future. Papua New Guinea was not so lucky and had no good crops or animals. Still back then inventions were being slowly made and it was a long time before technology that was very productive and was made very fast was beginning to kick in.
