The origins of sedentism and urbanism have long been central to understanding social transitions during the Neolithic period in ancient China. The Northern Zone of China, influenced by the East Asian monsoon systems, presents a complex picture of human-environment interactions. While the composition of plants in Neolithic north China remained relatively stable, with millet being a subsistence staple, the intertwining of socio-political activities with plant-based food and drink practices is still underexplored during the processes of sedentism and urbanism.By integrating archaeological, archaeobotanical, and experimental data, my dissertation seeks to unravel the intricate, long-term relationships between humans, plants, practices and technologies of food and drinks. I examine plant utilization and food practices across three key phases of the Neolithic period, by focusing on: 1) how people exploited plants in different micro-environmental contexts, 2) what plants were sustained and prepared in various food and drink forms, and 3) how plant-based foods played roles in social structural transitions at different scales in households, communities, and socio-political institutions.By analyzing data from semi-sedentary villages to urban landscapes, this dissertation emphasizes the role of plants, stone, and pottery assemblages as nonhuman entities in forming entangled biological-material-social pathways during the Neolithic period. It underscores the connections between food practices and socio-political developments. The interdisciplinary approach, coupled with an extensive temporal scope, broadens the anthropological and archaeological discourse on the interplay between societies, plants, and the environment across diverse socio-political settings.
