Could it be that farming and the domestication of animals
turned into the "doomsday weapon" of the late Stone Age?

Intevestink, velly intevestink! 8-)

Back in the 1800's linguists worked out that a group of people
calling themselves Aryan who farmed and had a warrior elite
started somewhere near and most likely between the Black Sea
and the Caspian sea and spread to Ireland in the west and
India in the East. The reasons they were able to do this was
they were the first farmers and had horse drawn chariots and
metal working.

The Bantu did exactly the same thing over much of Africa minus
the horses. You may learn about the Bantu in approved texts
but thank to Nazi bull crap the Aryan expansion is now
politically incorrect to recognize.

You can find evidence of the same sort of thing happening
other places. Farmers didn't have had easier lives but they
had more kids.
