Have mentioned before that nobody knows how humans domesticated animals or plants. It's the greatest mystery of all time. I think this is much more important than just farming. We once knew how to create eternity in life (rather than after it). Those domestic animals and plants continue down the generations, that's why we did it. We do a similar thing when we raise kids, in some ways our only true work. But we're losing our understanding of how to do that well too.
