Origins as a tea plant is said and the Cenozoic No. 3 Miki generally begin with 65 million years ago. How to identify Brown Domini era is’s analogy the fossil plants are usually similar, would be.

Real tea or tea leaves in the Cenozoic fossil was found by either China or Japan.

However, it seems 250 million years tea leaves (Camellia Sinensis leaf) fossils have been found in Yunnan.

It’s turns out fossils discovered in Yunnan tea leaf, with old age so much Andrew Yunnan plant Research Institute Department of China expert appraisal result of,.

I think without listening little story era began in the Mesozoic dinosaurs appeared in speaking of n/a years ago, equisetum, Pteridophytes, Cycad, ginkgoaceae main plants usually as this era, theaceae plants had, if it is true, if you’re so great it is or.

Real fossil of the oldest tea leaves was found while Japan and tea is said and the one about 45 million to 35 million years ago late and 3 tertiary Eocene.

This fossil is discovered in 1970 ( 0/1970 ) , Yamaguchi Ube coal field. Tea real two points are and fishing is 6 points, tea, was announced to the world as ” and Thea Ubensis Huzioka Takahasi “.

Leaves 6-12 cm, length-width 3. It was a modern India and similar to the shiso leaf species of southern China during 6 to 7 inches.

Of such old tea was the Japan long gone is a surprise. It is not firm evidence that from this fossil is just become era of human history in the book afterwards tea might have had wild, maybe “Japan vegetation was similar and southern China can say that age was a Japan of the continental land bridge to.

Camellia genus 5,500 years ago, was found in the tssacana mountains of China Zhejiang Province yuyao 2001 tree roots. Is estimated and this DNA testing done, but maybe is tea. Not a of was planted in the purposes such as use of tea oil and planted between the two buildings housing the excavation team is. Now, if this tea plants were history of the origins of the tea and coffee back approximately 4,000 years further topics.

While fossils of tea leaves and tea has been excavated iwatsuki, Saitama Saitama Prefecture from the 1940 ( 0/1940 ) in the Japan.

It was excavated from the ruins of shinpukuji Temple peat in Jomon about 2,800 years ago,. It is especially interesting place of the fossil of this tea tree Hasebe saying Mr. long hit the excavation by noted not a of “somehow had grown being’.

Tea that is seems that Japan even grown from Jomon ruins like this from the earlier pretty fossils excavated would deserve attention.

History of Japan tea can be changed greatly if properly verified because first, Kukai brought back tea fruit and further than China, Eisai brought back what is now tea original you to Japan tea imports.

From the peat, it is said that is a boundary between Jomon, Yayoi, water purification pond ruins Shikoku Tokushima-Shi ( 0/1925 ) in addition to 1925, is, from the Jōmon period ruins “over Mount shell mound” to the 1938 ( 0/1938 ) in found fossils of “Camellia Sinensis”.

Jomon and Yayoi and tea are found near the ruins of human era to live like this stuff so interesting because it sounds.

If this era “tea is available is was”, the history of Japan tea will change significantly. From is a fossil found in good-old tea samples less, still as the material for the study of the history of the tea cool barrel but not evidence. Further research is also centralising.
