Current Perspectives and Scientific Issues in the Study of Prehistoric Cereal Agriculture in Mainland Southeast Asia : A Comprehensive Review
Year: 2024
Type: article
Abstract: This comprehensive review examines the study of prehistoric cereal agriculture in Mainland Southeast Asia, which has become a focus of research due to its significance in understanding early agricultural practices and complex societies in the region. The review highlights key findings, methodological approaches, and research gaps, with a particular emphasis on rice and millet cultivation, the primary cereal crops in the area. It discusses the origins and diffusion of cereal agriculture, including possible routes of dispersal from China to Mainland Southeast Asia. The limited availability of archaeobotanical data presents a challenge, but the review aims to contribute to ongoing research and provide valuable insights into the agricultural history of the region.
