Summary

Archaeologists are studying plant remains from a site that was last occupied over 10,000 years ago. If the plants were cultivated, the people there discovered agriculture much earlier than anyone else. If the plants were wild, those people ate more types of wild plants than any other people at that time.

Strongly Supported Conclusions

Whether the plants were cultivated or wild, the people who lived at the site were using some plants differently than other people at that time.

The plant remains could provide insight into whether people at the site practiced farming or ate many types of wild plants.


If the plants are found to have been cultivated, it could challenge previous theories of when humans began cultivating plants.
