In this edition of Breaking Bread, Rachel Parker takes listeners down memory lane tracing the origins of bread, a staple food in many cultures. Starting from 30,000 years ago, when our ancestors unwittingly fermented wild grain seeds in water, Rachel describes the initial creation of dense flatbreads by primitive humans. She explains the monumental role of agriculture around 10,000 BCE in making bread a food staple, leading to the formation of permanent human settlements and advanced societies. Highlighting bread's historical significance, she discusses its use as a commodity and currency in ancient Egyptian civilization and its social impact by controlling grain supplies. Unveiling archaeological insights, Rachel shares fascinating findings of bread remnants dating back 14,400 years ago. As part of the episode, she seeks input from listeners for future topics while promising to continue exploring bread's history in the upcoming episode.
