Peter Michael Bauer @anthrodidact.bsky.social · 02/02/2026People often conflate agriculture with the word "cultivation." Cultivation comes from the root word "colere" which meant, "to till the soil." This is because agro-centric civilizations didn't recognize any other forms of cultivation as such. 100 1
Peter Michael Bauer @anthrodidact.bsky.social · 02/02/2026For example, when people say "agriculture" for a different kind of cultivation, what they really mean is actually #horticulture, or any of the alternative forms of cultivation or #subsistence. 100 1
