Sudden & Radical Changes in Human History – David Kantor

David Kantor shared his keen insights and as you can tell by the brief overview of the show, his in-depth research and knowledge is superlative.
   For hundreds of thousands of years humanity existed in a relatively stable relationship with nature. But then suddenly within the space of a few thousand years, agriculture, animal domestication, complex irrigation techniques, temple construction, trade networks, large-scale social systems, writing, and much more appeared on the stage. What caused this sudden and radical change in the human situation?
   Join us as we consider the archaeological, anthropological, and literary witnesses to this still-unfolding drama.
