Tropical Archaeobotany
Covers the examination, identification and interpretations of plant remains in tropical archaeology, whilst also the origins, spread, distribution and past use of tropical plants for food and other purposes.
The Prehistory of Food

Charcoal analysis and the reconstruction of ancient woodland vegetation in the Konya Basin, south-central Anatolia, Turkey

Tropical Archaeobotany
Prehistory and human ecology in Eastern Polynesia
The Tangatatau Rockshelter (site MAN‐44, Mangaia, Cook Islands) has produced one of Eastern Polynesia's most comprehensive chrono‐stratigraphic sequences of artifacts, vertebrate and invertebrate fauna, and botanical materials. Two seasons of excavation exposed 29 m 2 out of an estimated total floor area of 225 m 2 . A suite of 30 radiocarbon age determinations indicates that human use of the shelter spanned the period from ca. 1000 to 1700 cal A…

Mesolithic plant exploitation at the Roc del Migdia, Catalonia
Possible bone threshing tools from the Neolithic levels of the Grotta dei Piccioni (Abruzzo, Italy)
Tropical Archaeobotany
A Morphological Classification of Roots and Tubers and its bearing on the Origins of Agriculture in Southwest Asia and Europe
Preliminary investigation of the plant macro-remains from Dolní Věstonice II, and its implications for the role of plant foods in Palaeolithic and Mesolithic Europe
For the most part the Pleistocene, and even the earliest post-glacial, is a blank when it comes to evidence of humans eating plants. No wonder the old men's stories, of chaps who hunt great mammals and eat their meat, still dominate our unthinking visions of hunter-gathering in that period. Some real evidence, slight though it is, from a classic European Upper Palaeolithic site provides a more balanced view
Ancient Maya subsistence diversity
A first notice of the mushy element in the subsistence base of the Maya realms
Turnip remains from Byzantine Sparta
The archaeobotany of subsistence in the Pacific
The archaeobotanical investigation of past subsistence is far more advanced in temperate and sub‐tropical regions of the world than in the humid tropics. Past subsistence strategies in the Pacific are little understood. In this paper the increasing amount of archaeobotanical evidence from the region is described. Two problematical areas of Pacific subsistence are examined: Lapita subsistence and the introduction of the sweet potato into the Pacif…
