About The Book

Although the need to study agriculture in different parts of the world on its “own terms” has long been recognized and re-affirmed a tendency persists to evaluate agriculture across the globe using concepts lines of evidence and methods derived from Eurasian research. However researchers working in different regions are becoming increasingly aware of fundamental differences in the nature of and methods employed to study agriculture and plant exploitation practices in the past. Contributions to this volume rethink agriculture whether in terms of existing regional chronologies in terms of techniques employed or in terms of the concepts that frame our interpretations. This volume highlights new archaeological and ethnoarchaeological research on early agriculture in understudied non-Eurasian regions including Island Southeast Asia and the Pacific the Americas and Africa to present a more balanced view of the origins and development of agricultural practices around the globe.
