- W2238974773 abstract "Modern Ethiopia consists largely of a plateau which rises abruptly from the Red Sea coastlands. The plateau levels off around 2,000 meters and maintains this altitude for hundreds of kilometers to the south, occasionally interrupted by deep gorges or mountains. The Rift Valley divides it into two major segments, eastern and western. We will devote our attention to the northern half of the western segment. Perhaps as early as the fifth millenium before Christ there arose here a distinctive agricultural complex, marked by plow-cultivated cereals.2 This complex endured later to form the basis of a classical civilization, whose origins lay in the first millenium B.C., and which reached the peak of its development in the Aksumite period, covering most of the first seven centuries of the Christian era. Still later the same agricultural system underpinned the more southerly Abyssinian kingdom with its Solomonic dynasty which emerged in the late thriteenth century and survived until 1974. In important respects it still shapes daily life. The peasants of revolutionary Ethiopia till with ox-drawn plows, sow the seed of a peculiar and richly varied collection of plants, cultivate, harvest and process their food as their ancestors have done since times of great antiquity. Not that the system was changeless and refused innovation. The sheer variety of cultivated plants indicates long and intense experimentation, while about three centuries ago red cayenne pepper (Capsicum), a native of America, assumed a central place in cuisine,3 and at the same time, or a little later, maize and haricot beans entered the stock of cultigens. Finally changing external demands have affected the decisions made by cultivators in many ways." @default.
