本研究分析了淀粉颗粒残留物从65个陶瓷文物发掘的有人居住的森林岛屿位于附近的提高领域在亚马逊盆地西南部的Llanos de Mojos地区。来自森林岛屿背景的淀粉粒组合代表了一系列不同的植物资源,包括玉米和木薯,但也有其他植物,如阿奇拉,竹芋,以及亚马逊西南部arracacha的第一个考古证据。在这项研究中确定的文物采样和植物代表资源使用的人生活在森林岛屿上建造和维护相邻的提高领域的种植。该研究强调了研究Llanos de Mojos当地和区域食物多样性的重要性。
This study analyzed starch grain residues from 65 ceramic artifacts recovered from excavations of inhabited forest islands situated near raised fields in the Llanos de Mojos region of the southwestern Amazon Basin. The assemblage of starch grains from the forest island contexts represents a diverse array of plant resources including maize and manioc, but also other plants such as achira, arrowroot, and the first archaeological evidence for arracacha in the southwest Amazon. The artifacts sampled and plants identified in this study represent resource use by people living on forest islands who constructed and maintained adjacent raised fields for cultivation. The study highlights the importance of research into the diversity of local and regional foodways in the Llanos de Mojos.
