Re: A More Reasonable Interpretation of the Evidence

But do you have any evidence for gardens?

Much of the existing evidence is consistent with gardens/groves, etc.

Would please give a specific instance and reference and how it "is consistent
with gardens/groves"...

This seems like the typical really stupid question. It's common
knowledge that it's we have no record of specific instances prior to
recorded history. How can this not have been obvious to you?

Hominid fossils tend to be found in association with trees and water
nearby. And hominid food preference are consistent with such. And
I've yet to find anything that would allow us to eliminate the
possibility of these gardens/groves. How about yourself? Can you
think of anything that would allow us to eliminate the possibility of
these gardens or groves for early hominids?

Considering that agriculture proper is a huge conceptual leap that didn't
happen until later, yes.

Well, it depends on how we define agriculture. Let me ask you a
question (to which you will not respond)? Would you consider the pest
control practices of early hominids 8 to 6 mya that I theorized (don't
pretend like you don't know what I'm talking about) in my hypothesis to
be agricultural? Yes? No? Maybe?

Answer the question you evasive twit.
