Environmental Archaeology, 1998, vol. 2, issue 1, 29-34

Abstract: This paper reviews the practicality and potential benefits of identifying wheat grains from archaeobotanical assemblages. Despite the difficulties involved in the taxonomic identification of individual grains, it is concluded that classifying grains into morphological types is important for the interpretation of grain assemblages.
