Historical journey from Göbeklitepe …

The relationship of human beings with wheat since 10 thousand years has shaped our culture. Bread, which is one of the basic nutrients of Anatolian cuisine, plays an important role in the formation of the cultural richness of human beings from our everyday life practices, literature, superstitions to the texts in sacred books. The first session of the “History of Turkey’s Bread” event organized by the History Foundation and lasting for 6 weeks last Sunday was held at Dokuz Eylül Uni. Assistant Professor of Archeology. Associate Professor. Ahmet Uhri’s “Wheat, Bread and Civilization” presentation.

Uhri said that human beings began to settled 12 thousand years ago, “With a grain of wheat and barley, the first steps of civilization were taken. We see that many areas in the region, especially the Göbeklitepe in Şanlıurfa, are fertile. Hence the whole adventure of man begins in this geography. As a result of the genetic studies carried out, Karacadağ near Urfa is shown as the homeland of all wheat used today in the world “.

Architecture women of agriculture

Ahmet Uhri, who stated that agricultural life is diversified by the ability of women to observe, stated that women who started agriculture and tame nature. But with the development of agriculture, Uhri stated that “plus product” has started to emerge and that there is a change in power relations. “With agriculture, farming has developed, the villages and the population have increased rapidly. The emergence of surplus value led to the development of business division and trade, and a clearing economy emerged. This led to institutionalization of power and bureaucracy to create social structure based on property, and to control it. But there is a contradiction here. After a while, the woman who prevails in nature loses its place in the central authority, especially in the patriarchal system of the East. ”

Agriculture in Anatolia started with an insurrection

Pointing out that human and agriculture have developed parallel, Uhuri stated that historical observation and experience are a kind of Neolithic-Information Package and stated that the transportation of agriculture to Anatolia was the result of a rebellion against authoritarian energy. Uhri, “We are seeing that agricultural information is taken to Central Anatolia and then to the Aegean Sea in this immigration process, which took place about 10,500 years ago. This migration 7,800 years ago to Germany and then to the Netherlands. B.C. In the 1600s, the Hittite state, the first state in Anatolia, was established. Uhuri, Göbeklitepe’da excavations in the animal products and agricultural products are mixed containers said.

Description given on Youtube:
Many agree that what makes bread delicious is gluten. The protein found in wheat helps to give bread the firm but light texture and structure that makes carbs irresistible. But for those with an intolerance for gluten, scientists have now engineered new strains of wheat that produce forms of gluten that decrease triggering of immune reactions in most people with celiac disease.
It turns out, all gluten is not created equal. Most immune reaction to gluten are caused by a component in gluten called gliadins. Scientists at the Institute for Sustainable Agriculture in Cordoba, Spain set out to use gene editing to remove most of the gliadins from wheat. Their efforts were reported recently in the journal Plant Biotechnology.
