      Naw playa - "In 2005, the world’s noodle enthusiasts got really excited when Chinese scientists unearthed a 4000-year-old bowl of noodles at an archaeological site at Lajia, China. This discovery appeared to mark the earliest example of the noodle in history: surely it could put the noodle v pasta debate in your head to bed?" - Etruscans were around @ 700 BCE. Simple math tells me the Chinese invented noodles, right around the time people in the area now called Italy were still pulling women into caves by their hair.

Read the article, this is why I arrived at that conclusion that pasta derived from noodles in China because the earliest proof of existence of noodles was in China. Perhaps in a trade route or what stuffs, differences in wheat or basically ingredients the noodles in China became what we know today as pasta. Also why don't you source your info first as your plagiarized essay proves nothing. So if it was widely known then, does it follow that they did invent it? Did they source it from a trade?

      @corsaro nero www.theatlantic.com/china/archive/2013/08/the-history-of-noodles-how-a-simple-food-became-a-worldwide-staple/278637/ Both the Italians and Chinese lay claim to inventing the noodle. According to your research, where did noodles come from?
      The oldest historical mention of noodles I could find appears in a dictionary from the third century A.D. in China. The earliest Chinese noodles, though, don't appear as strands of dough -- they were shaped into little bits, formed from bread dough, and thrown into a wok of boiling water. That kind of noodle, called mian pian, is still eaten in China. This was one of the most interesting pieces of research I came across -- that noodles in China actually began with its tradition of bread, something that is still widely eaten across northern China.

      @corsaro nero www.sbs.com.au/food/article/2016/07/29/who-invented-noodle-italy-or-china “We aren’t sure if the noodle developed in the west separately, after it appeared in the east or if pasta, as we know it, even relates to the noodles that were first eaten in China. There could have been two different food traditions that developed side-by-side in opposite parts of the world.
      “But based on my journey, it seems that Chinese noodles made their way throughout Asia, Korea and Japan, all through Central Asia and then through to Turkey. It makes sense as that was the way migration patterns moved and trading routes went.”
      Lin-Liu explains that as for Italian pasta, “Middle Eastern noodles, which developed after the fifth century, most likely influenced Europe”. (Lin Liu author of the Noodle Road)
      He doesn't necessarily confirm China invented it but that he doesn't completely dismiss that the pasta could have been derived from noodles due to trade routes.

    The myth of a Chinese origin 🇨🇳 of the Italian pasta 🍝 is FALSE.
    When Marco Polo brought back in Venice Chinese noodles 🍜 in 1295, pasta was already known in all Italy, but it was not called "pasta".
    The Italian words "Lasagna" and "Lasagne" both come from "Làganon" (in Greek 🇬🇷) or "Làganum" (in Latin🏛️: the plural of both languages is "Làgana"), a type of dried pasta well known by Marcus Tullius Cicero (106-43 B.C.).
    Centuries later Abū ‘Abd Allāh Muhammad ibn Idrīs al-Ṣiqillī, an Arab cartographer 🇸🇦 who lived in Sicily in the XII century mentioned the "Itriyya", a particular long, thin and cylindrical pasta known nowadays as spaghetti 🍝
    In 1275 in Genova (20 years before the famous journey of Marco Polo) a notary wrote in his diary 📝 that, among the goods 🗡️📯🌰🏺of one of his clients (a soldier), there was a "bariscela plena de macaronis", that is "a pot full of maccheroni/macaroni/pasta.
