Hight, one of the markers of health and nutrition. I am surprised by the fact that even now the average height is lower than in the pre-agriculture times. (Note that in Europe it is higher than of the pre-agricultural).
Also, I am curious what is in 1450 BC (an artifact? a different population? times of plenty?).
So, in some sense, we are getting back to the Eden, we run away from.
Taking a fruit from a (cultivated) tree set us in the path of suffering, as promised: "cursed is the ground because of you; through toil you will eat of it all the days of your life".
But agriculture was a temporal pain, lasting 10 millennia or so. And where is the new paradise? And how long is it going to last?
