Abstract:	Presents a study that examined the feasibility of routinely analyzing ancient DNA from charred wheat remains to identify ploidy levels from morphologically ambiguous wheat grains. Information on the link between wheat cultivation and human cultures Background on problems caused by the ambiguity in the archeobotanical identification of wheat species Details on the analysis of several samples of charred wheat Implications for the evolution and spread of wheat into Europe.
