topics (OpenAlex): Archaeology and ancient environmental studies; Isotope Analysis in Ecology; Geology and Paleoclimatology Research
TL;DR: A blind test contending to support the identification of Zea at the genus level and distinguish maize and teosinte in archaeological sediments and soils is examined, providing evidence to indicate a lack of reliability and/or credibility of this method for maize identification in archaeological contexts.
