Abstract: Paleobiolinguistics is used to determine when and where maize (Zea mays L.) developed significance for different prehistoric groups of Native America. Dates and locations of proto-languages for which maize terms reconstruct generally accord with crop-origin and dispersal information from plant genetics and archaeobotany. Paleobiolinguistic and other lines of evidence indicate that human interest in maize was extensive millennia before the widespread development of a villagefarming way of life in the New World. © 2014 Society of Ethnobiology.
