Review
“An up-to-date barometer of the current status of paleoethnobotany and ecology in investigations of human-plant relations and broad, related questions. . . . A must-buy for anyone actively engaged in these types of research.” —Southeastern Archaeology
“This book contributes timely and provocative chapters to the literature on anthropogenesis. It has enough variety and coverage to satisfy a wide range of readers.” –Gail E. Wagner, University of South Carolina
