Citrus Part Two

This week we finish our discussion about the domesticate varieties of Citrus and their hybrids. Including etymology, origins, and uses. There are three important notes for this week's episode! First during the etymology section there is discussion regarding the etymology of one of the names of a specific type of lime that in some places has very complicated connotations so if you are offended by or have difficulties with strong language be warned. Second, when discussing Persian limes around the 15 minute mark I misspoke when I said they were not widely grown. I should have said that they didn't become widely grown outside of Persia until much later than Key or Mexican limes. Finally I mixed up lemons and limes several times this episode but you can probably figure out which I meant via context clues.

Plums and Rosaceae Berries

This week I correct a major oversight by talking about the domestication of the Plum which has been long done by this volume. We also cover the major berries in the Rosaceae family, the Blackberry, Strawberry, and Raspberry. I also throw in the Blueberry even though it is not aa Rosaceae.

Rosaceae

This week we go over the domestication of several members of the Rosaceae family. This includes peaches, pears, apricots, almonds, and cherries. This is not all of the Rosaceae and more will be covered later but I hope you'll listen, learn and enjoy as I talk about etymology and locals of some of the most important fruit trees being domesticated during this volume's time frame.

Stagione 4

Ending Season Four Talking about Brazil

This week we discuss Brazilian rock art, dating difficulties for some older archeological sites, and differences between favored terminology used by Brazilin archeologists. We also discuss the increase and spread of shell midden or Sambaquis sites as well as how some of these coastal sites revealed the earliest evidence of whaling in the Americas if not the world. Also since I know some of you may say something, I know I mistakenly called Columbus Spanish. I know that he was from Genoa and was only working on behalf of Ferdinand and Isabella.
