长期以来，伊朗作为驯化谷物原产地的角色一直备受争议。乔加戈兰(伊拉姆省，今伊朗)的新石器时代遗址具有很高的地层分辨率和丰富的考古遗迹，揭示了2200多年来野生植物的种植和驯化类型物种的首次出现。Chogha戈兰的植物学记录记录了该遗址的居民如何种植野生大麦(大麦)和其他现代作物的野生祖先物种，如野生扁豆和豌豆。野生小麦(Triticum spp.)最初只占植物物种总数的不到10%，但在序列的最后300年里增加到20%以上。大约在现在之前的9800个历年，驯化类型的二聚体出现了。乔加戈兰的考古植物遗迹代表了伊朗长期植物管理的最早记录。
The role of Iran as a center of origin for domesticated cereals has long been debated. High stratigraphic resolution and rich archaeological remains at the aceramic Neolithic site of Chogha Golan (Ilam Province, present-day Iran) reveal a sequence ranging over 2200 years of cultivation of wild plants and the first appearance of domesticated-type species. The botanical record from Chogha Golan documents how the inhabitants of the site cultivated wild barley (Hordeum spontaneum) and other wild progenitor species of modern crops, such as wild lentil and pea. Wild wheat species (Triticum spp.) are initially present at less than 10% of total plant species but increase to more than 20% during the last 300 years of the sequence. Around 9800 calendar years before the present, domesticated-type emmer appears. The archaeobotanical remains from Chogha Golan represent the earliest record of long-term plant management in Iran.
