Cotton. It was training, and really great foresight if I say so myself.Ew racist.
2. What was the first domesticated animal and when was it domesticated? What is the most recent domesticated animal (where there was major domestication)?
Woman was the first, pretty much as soon as they started poppin' out babies. The most recent would have to be me. I did the dishes yesterday in my kitchen.
3. What is the difference between Cro-Magnon and **** Sapiens Sapiens? What is the most famous legacy of Cro-Magnon population?
I feel an example works best. Stubs is to Cro-Mag as I am to ****. The Cro-Magnons were famous for being thick of skull.
4. What is the oldest city that has had continuous population? What is the oldest port of call? What do you call a permanent settlement that was settled before the Agricultural Revolution?
I'm not having any FUN with this question.

6000 years. Scientologists may disagree, but they'll burn in hell for it. God.

1. The primary grain of Egypt was Wheat. They made hats out of it. Rice replaced it because they were trying to be like the Japanese .
2. The first domesticated animal was a Lemur in 523 AD. The most recently domesticated animal is the Giant Squid, which was domesticated by Serigei Sharginov in Russia.
3. Cro-Magnons hands were twice as big as their feet. Also they had 47 vertebrae in their necks, which allowed them to turn their head at 359 degrees, because, like an owl, their eyes were fixed in their sockets. Their most famous legacy was that they were able store up to 50 lbs of **** before they had to use the bathroom. They made it into a grand ceremony where they would dance around a fire and **** onto a great big pile.
4. Your mother.
5. 6000 years. Read the bible.

Most recent is open for crazy debate depending on how you want to define "domesticated" and "major". For instance, I wouldn't consider modern mink farming to be domestication because they're just typical minks stuck in an uncomfortable situation. My own choice would be the turkey which wasn't actually farmed until European colonialization (it was just hunted wild) and which, today, is genetically distinct enough from its wild cousins that it can not mate naturally even with other domesticated turkeys due to its large breast muscles blocking the way. If you released every domesticated turkey back into the wild as feral animals, they'd be dead within a generation.

Barley? I'd assume it was used mainly for bread. I know beer was a pretty big part of their diet as well, but I'm not sure if barley can be used for it as I've never gotten into brewing (yet). They probably used some type of emmer wheat. No clue what replaced it.
2. What was the first domesticated animal and when was it domesticated? What is the most recent domesticated animal (where there was major domestication)?
Dog.. durr. I would assume it was domesticated for hunting. No idea what the most recent domesticated animal is.. the only one I've heard about that would even be close to recent is the fox. Some scientists in Germany (might not be Germany, but around that area?) have been breeding a rather large amount of them for domestication.
3. What is the difference between Cro-Magnon and **** Sapiens Sapiens? What is the most famous legacy of Cro-Magnon population?
I don't know much about their genetics other than they were shaped differently
Their craniums were large, but long and narrow. Their legacy was cave paintings, maybe?
4. What is the oldest city that has had continuous population? What is the oldest port of call? What do you call a permanent settlement that was settled before the Agricultural Revolution?
Byblos, Lebanon is the oldest and still populated city. No idea on the rest.
5. What is the approximate age of the earth? When was there a consensus among scientists? Who is the scientist credited with establishing this age?
4.57 billion years old. I have no idea who or when decided that.
Aaaand that's all I know without Googling/Wiki'n, but I'm about to now that I'm all curious.

As far as I know, there's no true practical difference between Cro-Magnon man and **** sapien sapien. Or at least no true genetic difference. It's pretty much just a question of how far up the spears 'n fire chain you've moved up.
