[QUOTE]Originally posted by Tukuler: [QB] Wait! What about the Qadan? [list] [*][URL=http://underline][i]The Qadan[/i] (13,000 - 9,000 BC) sites, stretching from the Second Cataract of the Nile to Tushka[/URL] (about 250 km upriver from Aswan), actually [URL=http://underline]have cemeteries and evidence of ritual burial[/URL]. It is also during this time that the first great experiments in [URL=http://underline]ordered agriculture began. Grinding stones and blades have been found in great numbers with a glossy film of silica on them, possibly the result of cut grass stems[/URL]. Sadly, as stone preserves better than straw baskets or satchels, the extent of agriculture from this period can not be determined. It may not have been true agriculture as we know it, but rather [URL=http://underline]a sort of systematic "caring for" the local plant life (watering and harvesting, but as yet no planting in ordered rows and the like)[/URL].
