Assessing these effects has long been of interest, but only recently has experimental research to gain better understandings of the taphonomic processes affecting macro- and microbotanical specimens been conducted (Wright 2010).The paleoethnobotanical record is much less subjective. However difficulties in assigning specimens to specific taxa may occur (Pearsall 1989), and confirmation of its putative use by humans is also sometimes difficult or even con-tentious.
