Compilation of Phytolith and Starch Images of Taxa Relevant to the Contemporary Caribbean
Abstract
In Spring 2018, Natasha A. Fernández-Pérez approached Christine A. Hastorf because she wanted to do a Directed Reading on phytolith and starch applications to archaeology. Since she wanted to work on the Historical/Contemporary Caribbean, where there plantscape has been affected by colonialism, imperialism and globalization, the readings ranged from all over the Neotropics and included few relevant plants from the Old World (e.g. rice, bananas and Near Eastern cereals).
