In ancient civilizations, the development of agriculture usually led directly to the development of urban centers

Researchers studying ancient agricultural practices in Mesopotamia during the Sumerian civilization investigated the remains of various grains found in different archaeological sites. Their analysis revealed that in certain regions, emmer wheat constituted the primary crop grown by the Sumerians, while in other areas, barley was the predominant grain cultivated. Additionally, they found evidence suggesting that in regions where barley was scarce, farmers often resorted to cultivating a grain known as einkorn wheat as a substitute.Which finding, if true, would most strongly support the researchers' conclusion?Choose Your AnswerPreviousNextA.Analysis of historical Sumerian texts unearthed references indicating that barley and wheat held equal importance and were extensively cultivated across all regions of ancient Mesopotamia.B.Examination of soil samples in areas where einkorn wheat was cultivated revealed adverse conditions for barley cultivation but optimal conditions for growing einkorn wheat.C.Further investigation indicated that in regions where barley was the primary crop, there were no traces or evidence of emmer wheat cultivation, signifying a deliberate preference for barley over emmer wheat.D.Interviews conducted with modern farmers in the region suggested a strong preference for emmer wheat due to its higher market value and nutritional benefits over barley and einkorn wheat.
