Résumé
The Latin word domus, house, is at the basis of the term "domestication", chosen to describe the process during which animals and plants entered the human niche more or less intentionally promoted and/or directed by humans. Indeed, apart from dogs, domesticated over 15 000 years ago by hunter-gatherers, all other animals were domesticated once the nomadic lifestyle was abandoned and a semi-sedentary or sedentary lifestyle involving architectural structures, "houses", was adopted.
