I reckon you can fit 4-5 towns in there.... you'd still have 2 cows per city if that were the case!
Get to Monarchy superfast, then, oh, I dunno.... two settler/worker pumps and 3 military pumps?

Hmmm... And I thought that the one I had with 4 in it was a fluke. Just out of curiosity, what difficulty level are those from?
Also I've noticed more tile clumping when you choose 3M in the age section.

I thought I was cool with five starting cows.  However, my continent was too far away from any other civs to continue playing. Once I conquered the Chinese, I had nothing else to do 'till I got Navigation, which wasn't gonna happen for a long, long, time.

Once I got a beautiful deity start with 11 cows (yes, 11) in my city radius. However, there were no horses nor iron on my continent.
That one looks impressive.

You know what would be cool? If there was a place where players could post the 4000BC turn for games that turned out to be very interesting so that other players could give it a try. (If this is already out there please point me to it as I'm not aware of it).
