Corn - The precursor plant to what we know as corn today is believed to be a wild grass called teosinte, indiginous to central Mexico, and first cultivated (made part of the culture) about 7,000 years ago. The wild grass, which has relatively few, small seeds that easily scatter when the plant is touched, was domesticated for traits of larger, easier to harvest seeds. The domesticated plant and seeds came to be known as maize by the indiginous peoples throughout North and South America, and a major food source. Europeans were unaware of corn before the explorations of Christopher Columbus.
