| Research Abstract |
This study aimed to reconsider the variation of storage activities of early farming society in West Asia and to discuss the formation process of the management system of commodities as a basis of the later civilized society. To accomplish these aims, archaeological evidences from Tell el-Kerkh and other comtemporary sites were examined. Although an intensive storage activity considered as a forerunner of the civilized society was observed at Tell el-Kerkh, other evidences demonstrated that the formation of the management system of commodities was a polyphyletic process. Various management methods of commodities developed depending on diversified economic strategies in early farming society, and the later management system was extracted from these methods.
