dc.description.abstract | Our distant ancestors found their food by hunting and foraging. They indirectly depended on soils that provided plants, but they did not markedly alter soils by their actions. With transition to agriculture, human impact and dependence on soils was inevitable. Development of agricultural technologies during the evolutionary processes of civilization led to the stabilization of human communities through their settlement in fixed locations, rather than being nomadic in search of livelihood. | |
