Reviews
Advance Praise: "Bonavia has written a masterly account of the domestication and adoption of maize in the New World based on hard science from many disciplines. Although likely controversial to some specialists for his bold thinking, his book is a welcome dose of fresh ideas about the early history of one of the world''s most important food crops. Up -to -date, balanced, and based on the latest research, this work is the best summary of the subject by a Latin American scientist in a generation and can be recommended to anyone interested in ancient food production." - Tom D.

Synopsis
This book examines one of the thorniest problems of ancient American archaeology: the origins and domestication of maize. Using a variety of scientific techniques, Duccio Bonavia explores the development of maize, its adaptation to varying climates and its fundamental role in ancient American cultures. An appendix (by Alexander Grobman) provides the first-ever comprehensive compilation of maize genetic data, correlating this data with the archaeological evidence presented throughout the book. This book provides a unique interpretation of questions of dating and evolution, supported by extensive data, following the spread of maize from South to North America and eventually to Europe and beyond., This book examines one of the thorniest problems of ancient American archaeology: the origins and domestication of maize.

The product itself came in its packaging and was new, not used at all. The packaging was not beat up or anything, safely delivered to my mailbox. No mix ups and zero stress with delivery. The price for the product is completely understandable for the product. I really appreciate the seller and I am very happy to have purchased through this seller. Completely trustable!

Auction said 12-15 days. Better clarity would have prevented lot of frustrationStreet Fighter II - Guile (Player 2) Figure - 6 Inch (N° 365698737394)
- 2***0 (4)- Feedback lasciato dall'acquirente.Mese scorsoAcquisto verificatoThe basket is perfectly what I ordered and as listed. It came in the factory packaging and was perfect upon delivery. Thank you postal service lol. The delivery took way longer than listed though, it was listed to come in a week from purchase, but took a whole month. I had some concerns at first, but communication with the company was top notch and they were very professional and answered most of my questions satisfyingly. Just prepare for a longer wait than listed, but I got what I bought lol.
