Abstract

The article focuses on a study that used liquid scintillation counting and accelerator-based mass spectrometric (AMS) C radiocarbon dating of associated charcoals and a carbonized seed of Annona squamosa L. or custard apple to analyse its antiquity in India. The study found that custard apple seeds from the Neolithic cultural sequence at Tokwa was dated 3500 yrs BP. The remains of custard apple in the archaeological records are said to indicate Asian-American trans-oceanic contacts before the discovery of America by explorer Christopher Columbus.
