Hypothesis
Dependence on agriculture for subsistence will be positively associated with sedentism. (87)
Note
While sedentism is closely associated with increasing reliance on cultivation, the author claims that due to semi-sedentary exceptions, sedentism is not a necessary or sufficient condition for heavy reliance on agriculture.
