Guns, Germs, and Steel: The Fates of Human Societies 1997-03-01T00:00:00Z Indians adopted Mexican crops, and many of them discarded many of their local domesticates, piecemeal; squash was domesticated independently, corn arrived from Mexico around A.D. Guns, Germs, and Steel: The Fates of Human Societies 1997-03-01T00:00:00Z Hence any attempt to understand the origins of the modern world must come to grips with the question why the Fertile Crescent’s domesticated plants and animals gave it such a potent head start. Guns, Germs, and Steel: The Fates of Human Societies 1997-03-01T00:00:00Z Similarly, the people who first domesticated wet-country crops of West Africa spoke languages ancestral to the modern Niger-Congo languages. Guns, Germs, and Steel: The Fates of Human Societies 1997-03-01T00:00:00Z The nearest thing to an exception is the dog, originally domesticated as a sentinel and hunting companion, but breeds of dogs were developed and raised for food in Aztec Mexico, Polynesia, and ancient China. Guns, Germs, and Steel: The Fates of Human Societies 1997-03-01T00:00:00Z One might therefore have been deceived into supposing that chickpeas were domesticated in India. Guns, Germs, and Steel: The Fates of Human Societies 1997-03-01T00:00:00Z Some crops were probably domesticated first or independently in Japan, Korea, and tropical Southeast Asia. Guns, Germs, and Steel: The Fates of Human Societies 1997-03-01T00:00:00Z But no gazelle species has ever been domesticated. Guns, Germs, and Steel: The Fates of Human Societies 1997-03-01T00:00:00Z Similarly, wolves were independently domesticated to become dogs in the Americas and probably in several different parts of Eurasia, including China and Southwest Asia. Guns, Germs, and Steel: The Fates of Human Societies 1997-03-01T00:00:00Z But I was grounded and domesticated by the plain fact that should I now go down, I would not go down alone. Between the World and Me 2015-07-14T00:00:00Z The first domesticated horse I ever saw was a bay gelding, and it was standing next to the corral, nibbling sugar cubes from Shawn’s hand. Educated 2018-02-20T00:00:00Z The ancestors of wheat, rice, millet, and barley look like their domesticated descendants; because they are both edible and highly productive, one can easily imagine how the idea of planting them for food came up. 1491 2005-10-10T00:00:00Z An examination of the candidates that were never domesticated, such as Africa’s big herd-forming mammals, reveals particular reasons that disqualified each of them. Guns, Germs, and Steel: The Fates of Human Societies 1997-03-01T00:00:00Z Five thousand years after llamas had been domesticated in the Andes, the Olmecs, Maya, Aztecs, and all other native societies of Mexico remained without pack animals and without any edible domestic mammals except for dogs. Guns, Germs, and Steel: The Fates of Human Societies 1997-03-01T00:00:00Z Africa’s sheep and goats were domesticated in Southwest Asia, its chickens in Southeast Asia, its horses in southern Russia, and its camels probably in Arabia. Guns, Germs, and Steel: The Fates of Human Societies 1997-03-01T00:00:00Z No noteworthy plant or animal has been domesticated in the last 2,000 years. Sapiens: A Brief History of Humankind 2011-01-01T00:00:00Z Egyptians then domesticated the sycamore fig and a local vegetable called chufa. Guns, Germs, and Steel: The Fates of Human Societies 1997-03-01T00:00:00Z Dates of domestication provide a third line of evidence confirming Gabon’s view that early herding peoples quickly domesticated all big mammal species suitable for being domesticated. Guns, Germs, and Steel: The Fates of Human Societies 1997-03-01T00:00:00Z The lives of some domesticated animals could be quite good. Sapiens: A Brief History of Humankind 2011-01-01T00:00:00Z The other set consists of plants whose wild ancestors occur in Ethiopia and were probably domesticated there in the highlands. Guns, Germs, and Steel: The Fates of Human Societies 1997-03-01T00:00:00Z Hence when we domesticated social animals, such as cows and pigs, they were already afflicted by epidemic diseases just waiting to be transferred to us. Guns, Germs, and Steel: The Fates of Human Societies 1997-03-01T00:00:00Z For many years, geneticists have been tracing the origins of domesticated wheat. Sapiens: A Brief History of Humankind 2011-01-01T00:00:00Z For example, the olive Olea europea was domesticated in the eastern Mediterranean. Guns, Germs, and Steel: The Fates of Human Societies 1997-03-01T00:00:00Z No single step separated the woman gathering wild wheat from the woman farming domesticated wheat, so it’s hard to say exactly when the decisive transition to agriculture took place. Sapiens: A Brief History of Humankind 2011-01-01T00:00:00Z Conversely, two of the eight founder crops could not have been domesticated anywhere in the world except in the Fertile Crescent, since they did not occur wild elsewhere. Guns, Germs, and Steel: The Fates of Human Societies 1997-03-01T00:00:00Z By 3000 B.C. they were being domesticated in lands of the eastern Mediterranean. Guns, Germs, and Steel: The Fates of Human Societies 1997-03-01T00:00:00Z We can thus be sure that it was indeed possible to develop the wild plant into a useful crop, and we have to ask why that wild species was not domesticated in certain areas. Guns, Germs, and Steel: The Fates of Human Societies 1997-03-01T00:00:00Z The same button that controlled the ignition first dumped the ashes of the previous fire, and allowed for the entrance of fresh wood.—It was a thoroughly domesticated fireplace, you see. I, Robot 1950-12-02T00:00:00Z In contrast, four species of big mammals—the goat, sheep, pig, and cow—were domesticated very early in the Fertile Crescent, possibly earlier than any other animal except the dog anywhere else in the world. Guns, Germs, and Steel: The Fates of Human Societies 1997-03-01T00:00:00Z The result was a herd of domesticated and submissive sheep. Sapiens: A Brief History of Humankind 2011-01-01T00:00:00Z Following Homo sapiens, domesticated cattle, pigs and sheep are the second, third and fourth most widespread large mammals in the world. Sapiens: A Brief History of Humankind 2011-01-01T00:00:00Z As if he’d been a circus beast trained to behave like a domesticated creature, the mammoth dog left the dead man’s side and slipped out of our car through the opposite rear window. Summer of the Mariposas 2012-10-20T00:00:00Z It may first have been domesticated in Amazonia, presumably near the river’s mouth. 1491 2005-10-10T00:00:00Z The variety of wild animals thus tamed is far greater than the variety eventually domesticated, and includes some species that we would scarcely have imagined as pets. Guns, Germs, and Steel: The Fates of Human Societies 1997-03-01T00:00:00Z Particularly surprising is the large number of species of African and American mammals that were never domesticated, despite their having Eurasian close relatives or counterparts that were domesticated. Guns, Germs, and Steel: The Fates of Human Societies 1997-03-01T00:00:00Z Other striking examples involve wild species that were not domesticated in areas where food production never arose spontaneously, even though those wild species had close relatives domesticated elsewhere. Guns, Germs, and Steel: The Fates of Human Societies 1997-03-01T00:00:00Z For example, peas belong to the genus Pisum, which consists of two wild species: Pisum sativum, the one that became domesticated to yield our garden peas, and Pisum fulvum, which was never domesticated. Guns, Germs, and Steel: The Fates of Human Societies 1997-03-01T00:00:00Z Even as he took off his hat and rolled a cigarette, he had the cagey demeanor of a domesticated dog gone feral. The City Beautiful 2021-10-05T00:00:00Z Most members of agricultural and industrial societies are domesticated animals. Sapiens: A Brief History of Humankind 2011-01-01T00:00:00Z When humans and domesticated animals share quarters, they are constantly exposed to each other’s microbes. 1491 2005-10-10T00:00:00Z For example, the San Diego and Los Angeles zoos are now subjecting the last surviving California condors to a more draconian control of breeding than that imposed upon any domesticated species. Guns, Germs, and Steel: The Fates of Human Societies 1997-03-01T00:00:00Z The resulting western European farming societies domesticated the poppy, which subsequently spread eastward as a crop. Guns, Germs, and Steel: The Fates of Human Societies 1997-03-01T00:00:00Z As humans spread around the world, so did their domesticated animals. Sapiens: A Brief History of Humankind 2011-01-01T00:00:00Z Having in the preceding two chapters discussed why so many wild plant species seemingly suitable for domestication were never domesticated, we shall now tackle the corresponding question for domestic mammals. Guns, Germs, and Steel: The Fates of Human Societies 1997-03-01T00:00:00Z Experts disagree about the exact date, but we have incontrovertible evidence of domesticated dogs from about 15,000 years ago. Sapiens: A Brief History of Humankind 2011-01-01T00:00:00Z For instance, 95 percent of the cotton grown in the world today belongs to the cotton species Gossypium hirsutum, which was domesticated in prehistoric times in Mesoamerica. Guns, Germs, and Steel: The Fates of Human Societies 1997-03-01T00:00:00Z Whereas many such animals existed in Eurasia, only five animals of any sort became domesticated in the Americas: the turkey in Mexico and the U.S. Guns, Germs, and Steel: The Fates of Human Societies 1997-03-01T00:00:00Z Of the first eight significant crops to have been domesticated in the Fertile Crescent, all were selfers. Guns, Germs, and Steel: The Fates of Human Societies 1997-03-01T00:00:00Z Their African equivalents—such as the African buffalo, zebra, bush pig, rhino, and hippopotamus—have never been domesticated, not even in modern times. Guns, Germs, and Steel: The Fates of Human Societies 1997-03-01T00:00:00Z I really don’t like the word “domestic,” because people are not domesticated.
