Abstract
In Panama, archaeobotanical and paleoecological studies were carried out by Dolores Piperno and her team, already since the 1980s. The results of this research contributed to understanding American agricultural development especially related to the manipulation and domestication of plants and human/environmental interactions. However, despite this important role of the Panamanian evidence for the overall discussion of the development of agriculture in tropical environments, there has been little data generated on agricultural practice and land use pattern until this project.
