Problem
Based on the WEEDS in Assemblage 1, describe the type of agriculture it represents. (Note: Yes, there are no weeds below, but that absence is also meaningful. What can you infer from the absence of weeds among these crops about the cultures who maintained them?) For example,
1) Is cultivation in wet paddies or dry ground? Does it follow a fallow rotation?
2) Does the assemblage mix the residues of multiple field types?
3) How did harvest occur to exclude weeds?
4) Did reaping occur high or low on the stalk, or through uprooting plants?
5) Was sowing spring or fall? Harvest in summer or spring?
Explain with one paragragh:
a) Vitis vinifera grape (crop)
b) Olea europaea olive (crop)
c) Ficus carica fig (crop)
d) Punica granatum pomegranate (crop).
