- 1961 ----- color ----- 40 min ----- 16mm
- Presents the beginnings of civilization in the Western Hemisphere more than 10,000 years ago. One of the clues to the origin of settled communities is the development of agriculture, enabling people to give up a purely nomadic existence. Shows the process of discovery of the evidence of the first domestication of corn in the Tehuacan Valley of Mexico. It reveals how the archaeologist and the botanist working together can help reveal the pattern of prehistory.
- Topics: (Archaeology, Botany, Mexico)
