大量使碳化的植物遗体在韩阳玲陵墓的外部埋葬坑之一被发现,它超过 2000 年以前为 Jing 皇帝被造,刘, Qi (188—141 cal BC ) ,西方的汉王朝的第四个皇帝。遗体被 phytolith 分析和宏石块识别词法特征。从狐尾稷的种子( Setaria 斜体一),高粱稷( Panicum miliaceum ),大米( Oryza sativa )和 chenopod (可能的 Chenopodium giganteum )被识别,建议这四收割力量是在大写的区域( Guanzhong 区域)的主食植物食物, Shaanxi 省在早西方的汉王朝期间。自从他们很少仅仅在史前的地点作为使碳化的种子被发现了, Chenopods 经常被看作杂草。这是如此的大量种子在一个地点被发现了的第一次,它在中国为 chenopod 耕作向充分重要证据提供长历史。小麦被认为自从吴 Emporor,在 Guanzhong 区域被支持并且推广,刘, Che (156—87 cal BC ) ,西方的汉王朝的第五个皇帝。没有小麦在这个地点被发现,它支持小麦在吴皇帝的朝代前在食谱和耕地经济仍然是第二等的历史的文件记录。
A large amount of carbonized plant remains were discovered in one of the outer burial pits of the Han Yangling Mausoleum, which was built more than 2000 years ago for the Jing Emperor, Liu, Qi (188-141 cal a BC), the fourth emperor of the Western Han Dynasty. The remains are identified by phytolith analysis and macrofossil morphological features. Seeds from foxtail millet (Setaria italica), broomcorn millet (Panicum miliaceum), rice (Oryza sativa) and chenopod (possible Chenopodium giganteum) are identified, suggesting that these four crops might have been the staple plant foods in the capital area (Guanzhong area), Shaanxi Province during the Early Western Hart Dynasty. Chenopods were often considered as weeds since they have only been rarely found as carbonized seeds in prehistoric sites. This is the first time such a large amount of seeds has been found at a site, which provides strong material evidence for chenopod cultivation with a long history in China. Wheat was thought to be promoted and popularized in the Guanzhong area since the Wu Emporor, Liu, Che (156--87 cal a BC), the fifth emperor of the Western Hart Dynasty. No wheat was found at this site, which supports the historical document record that wheat was still secondary in the diet and agrarian economy before the Wu Emperor's reign.
