Enset（Ensete ventricosum）是一种土生土长的埃塞俄比亚驯化动物，生长在埃塞俄比亚西南部的“Enset区”。在这一地区几乎没有考古遗址被发掘出来，只有一个遗址发现了镶嵌物的遗骸。然而，该地区丰富的巨石和岩石艺术遗址弥补了考古记录的不足。这篇评论文章提供了一个解释性的分析，现有的工作机构，以揭示新的光开始农业在“嵌入区”。它整合了该地区的考古证据，通过挖掘，从巨石和独特的岩石艺术网站的信息恢复。该地区的考古证据表明，国内股票和陶器的引进较晚。该地区独特的巨石和岩石艺术传统被认为是与粮食生产后期相关的独特文化适应的一部分。
Enset (Ensete ventricosum) is an indigenous Ethiopian domesticate growing in what is known as the “enset zone” of southwestern Ethiopia. Few archaeological sites have been excavated in this region, and only one site has yielded remains of enset. However, the abundant megalithic and rock art sites in the region compensate for the paucity of the archaeological record. This review article provides an interpretative analysis of the existing body of work to shed new light on the beginning of agriculture in the “enset zone.” It integrates the region’s archaeological evidence, recovered through excavations, with the information from megalithic and unique rock art sites. The archaeological evidence of this zone indicates a late introduction of domestic stock and pottery. The unique megalithic and rock art traditions in this region are considered to be part of the distinct cultural adaptations related to the later phases of food production.
