摘要: This article reviews the available information on founder grain crops (einkorn wheat, emmer barley, lentil, pea, chickpea, and flax) that started agriculture in Southwest Asia during Pre-Pottery Neolithic period, some 11,000–10,000 years ago. It provides a critical assessment for recognizing domestication traits by focusing two fields of study: biology archaeobotany. The data these have increased considerably past decade, new research techniques added much to our knowledge progenitor plants their domesticated derivatives. presents current accumulated regarding each plant illustrates picture emerged origin agriculture.
