Marijke Van Der Veen
The Exploitation of Plant Resources in Ancient Africa
The Exploitation of Plant Resources in Ancient Africa Edizione Inglese di Marijke Van Der Veen (a cura di) Editore: Springer US EAN: 9781441933164 ISBN: 1441933166 Pagine: 300 Formato: Paperback This volume presents a completely new and very substantial body of information about the origin of agriculture and plant use in Africa. All the evidence is very recent and for the first time all this archaeobotanical evidence is brought together in one volume (at present the information is unpublished or published in many disparate journals, confer ence reports, monographs, site reports, etc. ). Early publications concerned with the origins of African plant domestication relied almost exclusively on inferences made from the modem distribution of the wild progenitors of African cultivars; there existed virtually no archaeobotanical data at that time. Even as recently as the early 1990s direct evidence for the transition to farming and the relative roles of indigenous versus Near Eastern crops was lacking for most of Africa. This volume changes that and presents a wide range of ex citing new evidence, including case studies from Nigeria, Burkina Faso, Ethiopia, Uganda, Egypt, and Sudan, which range in date from 8000 BP to the present day. The volume ad dresses topics such as the role of wild plant resources in hunter-gatherer and farming com munities, the origins of agriculture, the agricultural foundation of complex societies, long-distance trade, the exchange of foods and crops, and the human impact on local vege tation-all key issues of current research in archaeology, anthropology, agronomy, ecol ogy, and economic history.

1895 Paris, Ancienne Librairie Germer Baillière & Cie., Félix Alcan, Éditeur, [1895]. folio,s.d. [1895], gr. in-4 , demi-veau rouge à coins,dos à nerfs accidenté, [Rel. de l'époque], dos passé, titre et plat supérieur frottés,texte frais,sans rousseurs.. 2 ff.n.ch., x, 462 pp., 1 f.n.ch., portrait et 1 carte hors texte en couleurs. Numa Broc, Afrique, pp. 235-236. Édition originale, ornée d'un portrait de l'auteur en frontispice, 64 gravures dans le texte par Riou, certaines à pleine page, 15 cartes dans le texte et 1 carte repliée hors texte en couleurs. Préfacé par le vicomte Melchior de Vogüé, l'ouvrage relate le voyage du lieutenant-colonel Monteil à travers le Sénégal, le Mali, le Niger, le Nigéria et la Libye. L'objectif de cette mission était de reconnaître les pays situés entre le Niger et le Tchad, en particulier la ligne Say-Barroua, qui délimitait arbitrairement les zones d'influence française et anglaise. À partir de Saint-Louis du Sénégal, l'expédition Monteil passa par Kayes, Kita, Bamako et Ségou Sikoro, traversa la boucle du Niger jusquà Say, puis gagna le Lac Tchad par Sokoto et Kano, avant de se diriger vers Tripoli. Monteil est ainsi le premier Français à se rendre au lac Tchad, et le premier Européen à y parvenir par l'Atlantique. Les illustrations ont été réalisées d'après les documents de l'auteur et les photographies du commandant Quiquandon.
