Day- 4

In class we continued to watched Guns,Germs,and Steel. We also continued to learn about domesticated animals. To review back to yesterday we were talking aboutthe 14 kinds of animals that have been domesticated. Each animal that is domesticated can provied either food or labor. These fourteen animals were the first to be domesticated.

ANimals such as horses are very usefull to modern day farmers. They can till the land or other work, but they can do more then the average human. They can till mnore land, then an average human, creating a surplus of food. If they create a surplus humans dont have to worry about not having enough food.

All these surrounding countries were becoming more advanced, but the New Guinea natives were not. Jarred diamond says when he went to papua New Guinea in the 60's , the natives where still using rocks to hekp make food. While New GUinea was not advancing like other countries, they did have some things other countries didnt. They were an island, they didnt ave to worry about sharing land with neigboring countries. Before the were intruded by outsiders they had a great life. They hunted there own food, they pretty much did their own thing all the time.

When the animals and fertile crops reached eygept there was a hyuge advance in settlemnts. There were so many crops and animals they had enough to feed the pharos and officals more then they needed,not having to worry about not having food.
