It's what people do without any training. It's not necessary to have archaeological support for instinctive behavior. There's no archaeological support people swatted at flies during that time period. Again, this is rather pointless when you're arguing that early man was less capable than a child. GL with whatever.

Children don’t clear weeds instinctivly, it’s learned behavior.

Tossing seeds around can however be accidental, you can easily do it without intention.

It's not clear what you mean by "learned" here. You have plants. Other plants grow next to them and they die. It's observed learning (as I showed in the photos), similar to learning fire is hot. You have been implying it's more than that and are flat wrong on this simple understanding of reality. There's nobody that can help you with that.

You just described a relationship that didn't apply to native species before domestocsrion. In effect they where growing weeds.

Second you described learning and ignored culture showing children this relationship. Looking at a prepared area doesn't exist without someone preparing the area.

Clearly you don't understand what’s going on.

You're ascribing some definition of "culture" when the behavior is intuitive. I can understand if you're making an assumption about how stupid ancient man was, but that is simply a bias within your own imagination.

> In effect they where growing weeds.

Weeds are competing plant life, compared to the cultivation of specific species. The dictionary doesn't do anyone a lot of favors here, but that's the common parlance.

We were talking about Farming, then cultivation, which are strictly different things. Now you've moved to "domestication" all the while leaning on some strange alternate definition, or you're trolling. I don't think I can help you any more.
