The origin of agriculture is one of the defining
events of human history. Some 11-10,000 years ago bands
of hunter-gatherers started to abandon their
high-mobility lifestyles in favour of growing crops, and
the creation of settled, sedentary communities. This
shift into agricultural lifestyle triggered the
evolution of complex political and economic structures,
and technological developments, and ultimately
underpinned the rise of all the great civilisations of
recent human history.
Domestication of Plants in
the Old World reviews and synthesises the information on
the origins and domestication of cultivated plants in
the Old World, and subsequently the spread of
cultivation from southwest Asia into Asia, Europe, and
North Africa, from the very earliest beginnings. This
book is mainly based on detailed consideration of two
lines of evidences: the plant remains found at
archaeological sites, and the knowledge that has
accumulated about the present-day wild relatives of
domesticated plants. This new edition revises and
updates previous data and incorporates the most recent
findings from molecular biology about the genetic
relations between domesticated plants and their wild
ancestors, and incorporates extensive new archaeological
data about the spread of agriculture within the region.
The reference list has been completely updated, as have
the list of archaeological sites and the site maps.
This is an advanced, research level text
suitable for graduate level students and researchers in
the fields of crop science, agriculture, archaeology,
botanical archaeology, and plant biotechnology. It will
also be of relevance and use to agricultural historians
and anyone with a wider interest in the rise of
civilisation in this region.
