Re: eurocentrism

Sam, thanks for the attempt to define eurocentrism. But in all the
atlases that I have ever consulted, what is called the Middle East is in
Asia, not Europe.

CB: Those atllases are probably made with a eurocentric conception. In terms of geographical mass, Europe is just Northwest Asia. No reason to make Europe a separate continent.

The term Eurasian being used in discussing this book, puts too much emphasis on "Eur".  It should just be the Asian continent.

The best archaeological evidence suggest that the neolithic revolution
took place in central Asia.
