Kew's annual Distinguished Ethnobotanist Lecture by one of ethnobotany's leading teachers and researchers.
All of our ancestors originated in East Africa and spread from there to a series of new environments. In each new location they must have applied a process of learning about plants including ones that would be new to them. A basic question is: How long does it take a community to become “indigenous†to an environment or to develop strong patterns of interaction with a flora? Experiments in Thailand, Hawai`i and Texas will be presented to begin to address this question.
