The author assumes that the diffusion of squash throughout the woodlands region (C) was not due to Mexican influence.

Who is the author?

  • An author, by definition, is someone who writes. However, because any literate individual can put words on paper for whatever reason, there must be other criteria to identify the true author.
  • Obviously, an author is someone who writes books or articles for publication.

The author assumes that the diffusion of squash throughout the woodlands region:

  • "While squash might have been produced [in Louisiana's Poverty Point region], its presence at Poverty Point does not suggest a close tie to Mexico because squash had dispersed over the southeastern Woodlands region as early as 2000 BC," the author adds (final paragraph).

Therefore, the author assumes that the diffusion of squash throughout the woodlands region (C) was not due to Mexican influence.
