Abstract
Even today, historical and/or archaeological arguments on the origins of agriculture have been deeply affected by themythical stories of archaic societies. If we wish to change this argument to a scientific one we have to establish ecological approaches on this theme. From the ecological standpoint agriculture and/or cultivation is a kind of symbiotic relationship which are observed between manykinds of creatures. In the ecological sense, the basic models on the origins of agriculture and/or cultivation should be applicable to a wider range of symbiotic relationships which are practiced by many kinds of creatures include humans.
