NEOLITHIC OBSIDIAN: Did it fuel the expansion of farming 7,000 B.C.?

And so it is with the topic of this discussion - obsidian: we had absolutely no idea how crucial this 'black stuff' was to the spread of farming from Anatolia and the fertile crescent into Europe until really examining the narrative of how the early pioneers first ventured out in to the Aegean and crossed to mainland Greece. Our research has turned up all sorts of surprises and we hope you all enjoy this brief overview of the power of the trade in obsidian. 00:00 - Introduction & overview 02:08 - Obsidian: what is it, where is it found? 05:05 - Obsidian in prehistory 06:04 - Significance of obsidian in archaeology 10:10 - Traade networks and exchange of ideas 13:16 - Obsidian in Mesolithic Greece and the Aegean 17:03 - Obsidian from Milos in the Franchthi Cave 20:34 - Pre-Neolithic trade networks 24:22 - Boats as medium of expansion 27:20 - CHANNEL INFO & APPEAL 29:18 - Absence of evidence 31:21 - Obsidian in the Mediterranean 33:58 - Migration of early farmers and general influences of trade 37:28 - The decline in obsidian trade/its utility and value 41:07 - Rounding up Help us make our film, GÖBEKLI TEPE to STONEHENGE at ... 🟡 BUY ME A COFFEE: https://www.buymeacoffee.com/prehisto...
