The Agricultural Revolution certainly enlarge the sum total of food at the disposal of humankind, but the extra food did not translate into a better diet or more leisure. Rather, it translated into population explosions and pampered elites. The average farmer worked harder than the average forager, and got a worse diet in return.
Which of the following evidence would best challenge the author's argument that agriculture resulted in a worse diet than foraging?
(A) comparing Paleolithic human bone size in Europe and in Africa.
(B) Data comparing the frequency of violet deaths in paleolithic populations to those in neolithic populations (as evidenced by skeletons with evidence of blunt force trauma).
(C) Data comparing average life expectancy in the Indus Valley 4,000 years ago to that of modern South Asians.
