Arab weather - Bread is considered a staple food all over the world, and about its invention, scientists have found that the beginning of its manufacture may be older than previously thought.
Where archaeologists found charred pieces of bread dating back more than 14,500 years, they were found in a stone oven in the Black Desert in northeastern Jordan.
After analyzing the pieces of bread, it was confirmed that it was made from grains such as barley, wheat and oats. Where these grains were ground well, then sifted, kneaded, and then baked.
This is an important discovery about the history of bread making, as it drew the attention of scientists and researchers to the fact that humans made vital food many years before the discovery of agriculture.
The pieces of bread go back to the Natufian civilization, where they were found in the sites of the Natufians, and grinding tools and sickles were also found, and it was found that the inhabitants of this region were using plants in multiple ways. The area was a regular thing for its inhabitants, as bread was a staple meal on special occasions, and the quantity that was discovered is evidence that the bread-making preceded the discovery of plants, and was the paved way for the discovery of agriculture.
