@mapachin @adhdeanasl Thank you for adding this -- you're absolutely right. My response was inaccurate and ignored (as many of these conversations about humanity's "shift" to agriculture tend to -- my colonized brain talking) Indigenous agricultural practices that are ignored in most anthropological discussions because they didn't always "look" the same (among other reasons).

It's interesting to consider the crops being produced and how that impacts the outcome or evolution of social structures, I hadn't heard/read that idea anywhere but am really fascinated to learn more. It makes sense, definitely, that different necessary modes of growing different foods would have different outcomes as to how people interacted with one another within communities.

Thank you!
