Abstract

Este artigo apresenta evidências botânicas e históricas sobre o papel do arroz africano (O. Glaberrima) e dos escravos na introdução desses cultivos durante o séculos XVI e XVII. Num enfoque sobre a cultura, tecnologia e meio ambiente desafia a perspectiva do Intercâmbio de Columbia que enfatiza a difusão de cultivos, já então desde a África, pelos europeus. A evidência apresentada neste artigo sugere um papel crucial da espécie arroz glaberrima e do escravo na introdução do cultivo africano para as Américas.
