Probably the first cereal to be domesticated, the wheat originated in southwest Asia in the area known as the Fertile Crescent. The earliest archaeological evidence for wheat cultivation comes from the Levant, Syria and Turkey. Around 10,000 years ago,Kingfisher Books. (2004) The Kingfisher History Encyclopedia. Kingfisher Publications. p. 8. ISBN 0-7534-5784-9. wild einkorn and emmer wheat were domesticated as part of the origins of agriculture in the fertile crescent. Cultivation and repeated harvesting and sowing of the grains of wild grasses led to the selection of mutant forms with tough ears which remained attached to the ear during the harvest process, and larger grains. Selection for these traits is an important part of crop domestication). Because of the loss of seed dispersal mechanisms, domesticated wheats cannot survive in the wild.Smith, C. Wayne.
