that effect can be easily seen today in a living city, a city like fez, morocco.archaeologists have come to fez because the same high degree of specialization suggested by the ruins of ostia can be seen here in the flesh. the population and density of the old city of fez has remained the same since the 10th century. archaeologist david webster. the old city of fez had about 120,000 people for its total population. this would have been an equivalent of a population density of tens of thousands of people per square mile. now, the only reason why that was possible, especially in a nonindustrial context, was that you had a very effective agricultural environment around fez within, say, 15 or 20 miles radius. but you also had very effective forms of nonhuman transport -- donkeys, camels, horses, mules -- that could bring in all of the kinds of supplies that the city needed. now, that's one reason why you had such high population densities. one of the effects of really high population densities, of course, is to create very dense urban markets, lots of consumers concent

and so what he did was he went to denny's yeah, morocco, and algeria with a group of high-tech executives an angel investors. and in each of these countries they stopped. the u.s. embassy sponsored a competition where young people would come up with business ideas for high-tech start-ups. and there were dozens of people will apply. the top 50 would get to come in and meet these americans. i was not there, but i was told it was a very exciting day when the delegations came in. all these people were pitching their ideas. the winner, it was actually a young woman who proposed creating a biotech start-ups. and the only problem was that the other members of the delegation realized as they were preparing, you know, and making this trip and then eventually choosing a winner, this program was so poorly funded that there was no prize for the winning entrepreneur. so the other members of this delegation couple together some kind of reward for this young woman who had won the competition and for the winners in algeria and morocco. that report was a three month at the tech town incubator in detroit,
