Description

Contributions to the present volume span a vast region, and provide multiple perspectives on the history of plant domestication, agriculture, and the development of social systems. The editors of the volume consider how the papers fit into a larger story of human settlement in the Indo-Pacific region, the development of archaeology as a discipline, and the future role of taro in food production.
