Complete/answer the following questions in your reading comment:

Provide a brief 1-2 sentence summary of each reading.

How does Smith define “Niche Construction”? What are the six categories of niche construction he discussed? What is an example of each of these? Why are have these been harder to recognize in the archaeological record?

What do these readings tell us about the divide between domesticated and wild foods? Is this very clear cut? Why is this harder for some species than for others?

How is niche construction practiced in the example illustrated by Kimmerer?

Reading these, do you think that the divide between foraging and farming is as clear cut as you once believed?

Don’t forget to end by asking bringing up questions you have about the readings. Was there anything you did not understand?
