5 • A Story of Outside Influence and Local Adaptation
Abstract
This chapter introduces archaeobotanical data from Southwest China (Sichuan, Chongqing, Tibet, and Guizhou) and mainland Southeast Asia to trace potential routes of migration and cultural connections as evidenced by ancient plant remains and farming practices. It explores questions about the origins of farming in Yunnan and whether early farming communities in the region played a role in transmitting agricultural knowledge to neighbouring areas.
