The trajectory of early rice intensification and cultural change in the Lower Yangtze Valley revealed by an ecological analysis of archaeological phytoliths. (2015)
DOCUMENT Citation Only Alison Weisskopf. Ling Qin. Dorian Fuller.

Using data from modern and archaeological phytolith assemblages we follow the trajectory of wild rice cultivated on wetland margins at 5000 BC through early domestication and the first artificial arable systems in dug out fields at c. 4000 BC to fully developed irrigated paddy fields in the Lower Yangtze Valley. Using multivariate analysis with phytolith assemblages from ecological communities of rice weed flora across a range of arable systems we create modern analogues of ancient systems which...
