The Cereal Grain Café
Season 1, Episode 19
How long have humans been storing grain? If you listened to the last episode you may recall that it has been at least 11,000 years. This episode is the second element of a duet which is focused on history. It was an honor to talk with Dr. Ian Kuijt from the University of Notre Dame about his excavation work in Jordan, archaeology, as well as other aspects of history. More about his work can be found at his Academia page and his University of Notre Dame webpage. There you can his published works and his contact information.
If digging into history and archaeology is of interest, I highly recommend the following papers:
- Evidence for food storage and predomestication granaries 11,000 years ago in the Jordan Valley (by Kuijt and Finlayson, 2009)
- Archaeobotanical evidence reveals the origins of bread 14,400 years ago in northeastern Jordan (by Arranz-Otaegul et al., 2018)
