Emergence and Evolution of Agriculture - Adequate Food for All - page 13

especially major adaptive shifts in recent human evolution, including the foraging-
to-farming transition. I also thank the National Science Foundation, the National
Endowment for the Humanities, the National Geographic Society, the L. S. B. Leakey

notes
1. Domesticated plants and animals are new varieties or species of plants and animals that
evolved from existing wild varieties or species through either active or incidental selec-
tion by humans (Smith 1998, Winterhalder and Kennett 2006).
2. Hunters and gatherers obtain all their food resources from wild foods exclusively, foods
that are not directly managed by humans (see Winterhalder and Kennett 2006). Hunter-
gatherers today typically eat a mix of domesticated and nondomesticated foods.
