Re: Terra Preta soils
So would Amazonian Natives have access to 'activated carbon'? Would the temperatures in pottery kilns be high enough to make the charcoal become activated? the research doesn't seem to make clear what sort of carbon we are talking about.
If 'activated' has more cavities; wouldn't this be a good thing?
The pottery thing:
I was thinking terracotta type pots. Again the research does not say if pots were glazed or porous. Just that thousands of shards where found associated with the Terra preta soils but no where else!?
Many of the shards where from vast storage jars.
Mmmm ?!?!??
I am sure we will here more soon. It's all very puzzeling and facinating.
The implications for farming, gardening and global warming are immense.
Thanks for your post
Michael
