Coastal California, central Chile, parts of South and Western Australia, the Western Cape of South Africa and of course the Mediterranean Basin itself.found predominantly on the west coasts of continentsapproximately between 31 and 40 degrees latitude north and south of the equator

The mediterranean basin Home of countless, influential
peoples: the Egyptians, Phoenicians, Assyrians, Hittites, Greeks, Romans, Moors, Ottomans etc
These powerful, far traveling peoples opened trade routes across the ‘old world’, discovering what were to them previously unknown plant species, spreading them as they travelled on and of course returning with them home to the Mediterranean Basin and from there to the ‘new world’.

‘’...the agriculture of the Mediterranean has played a major role in the agriculture of the western world, and on this ground alone deserves discussion.’’ - D. B. Grigg, The Agricultural Systems of the World: An Evolutionary Approach.

fire Fire plays a major role in all Mcr ecology (except
chile, due to high altitudes and moist winds) Seasonal(summer) Aids succession Used by indigenous peoples for millennia Disruption to traditional fire-stick ag. Has
created conditions for catastrophic fires Bare soil from fire is a major cause of erosion

drought
seasonal summer dry plus extended periodoc drought
Summer dry creeks and streams(bores and wells)
River mouths can be Seasonally disconnected from the sea
Dry summers/drought creates water stress on plants

Traditional med. Basin systems
‘’In Britain and Denmark four-fifths of total agricultural income is derived from animals: in Mediterranean countries the figure rarely exceeds 40 per cent and is generally only between a fifth and a third, cattle are not numerous and beef and dairy are unimportant. Sheep and goats are the dominant animals...’’ - D. B. Grigg -1974 - Nature
Relatively less animal production
