Suggestions for Evaluating Archaeological Maize
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 20 January 2017
Abstract
In his report on excavations in Costa Rica, M. J. Snarskis interpreted a carbonized fragment of a maize cob, identified as the South American race Pollo, as evidence for contact with South America. It is suggested that this interpretation is invalid because of insufficient material and because the origins and relationships of the race Pollo are unclear.
