Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The Binford-Flannery model suggests that population pressure was a driving force behind the development of agriculture. Therefore, evidence of population increase before the emergence of domestication is necessary to support this model.

Answer: B
 The Binford-Flannery model also suggests that agriculture and fishing were complementary, and evidence of seafood in conjunction with agricultural fields supports this claim.

Answer: C
 The Binford-Flannery model does not specifically mention trade with food-producing societies, so this is not a necessary piece of evidence to support the model.

Answer: D
 Skeletal evidence of domesticated animals would support the idea that domestication was a result of intentional human intervention, rather than just the result of taming wild animals. However, this is not a necessary piece of evidence to support the Binford-Flannery model.
