农业起源和传播是考古学和许多其他学科的基本重要性的主题。这些调查是世界范围内的,需要大量的古植物学数据证明作物植物的野生祖先的开发和随后的驯化和传播。因此,在过去的几十年里,鉴定野生和驯化植物物种遗骸的方法的发展一直是古民族植物学的焦点。植硅体分析已日益成为地球仪所有领域重要的独立数据贡献者,关于这一主题的文献数量现已非常可观,并在一系列国际期刊上传播。在本文中,专家们进行了实际工作审查的实用性和重要性的植硅体分析记录驯化和世界各地的作物植物的传播。它将成为古民族植物学家和其他对农业发展和传播感兴趣的学者的重要资源。(C)2015爱思唯尔有限公司版权所有。
Agricultural origins and dispersals are subjects of fundamental importance to archaeology as well as many other scholarly disciplines. These investigations are world-wide in scope and require significant amounts of paleobotanical data attesting to the exploitation of wild progenitors of crop plants and subsequent domestication and spread. Accordingly, for the past few decades the development of methods for identifying the remains of wild and domesticated plant species has been a focus of paleoethnobotany. Phytolith analysis has increasingly taken its place as an important independent contributor of data in all areas of the globe, and the volume of literature on the subject is now both very substantial and disseminated in a range of international journals. In this paper, experts who have carried out the hands-on work review the utility and importance of phytolith analysis in documenting the domestication and dispersals of crop plants around the world. It will serve as an important resource both to paleoethnobotanists and other scholars interested in the development and spread of agriculture. (C) 2015 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.
