Although they represent the main fruit production on a worldwide scale, very little is known about their original domestication and routes of introduction into the Mediterranean and temperate Europe: few organic remains identified as citrus have been found on archaeological sites. Nevertheless, evidence has been retrieved for various periods in the form of pollen grains, seeds, rind fragments, and occasionally wood and whole fruits in areas of primo-domestication, Asian, and from sites along the potential routes of diffusion. Iconographic figurations and textual references also exist. The contributions presented here – written by researchers specializing in phylogeny, taxonomy, morphometry, archaeobotany, history, iconography, the study of classical letters, and curators of collections – present the latest knowledge relating to the taxonomy of the Citrus genus and the methods used in attempting to identify ancient specimens. Analysis of botanical remains and a variety of other sources, has allowed the citrus diversity in China, India, Israel, Egypt, Italy, and North-West Europe to be described. Greek, Latin and medieval texts have been explored in order to identify recognized species, cultivation methods, modes of consumption, uses, and virtues attributed to citrus fruits since their first occurrences. The conservatories and germplasm collections of citrus are presented from a historical point of view, as are the important role they play in genetic research to improve cultivars, the conservation of rare and ancient varieties, and the role of informing the general public is also emphasized. The symbolic representation of citrus fruits in the arts, literature, and philosophy completes this overview, and fills a gap concerning these emblematic Mediterranean fruit.AGRUMEDHistory & Archaeologyagrumes (culture)archéobotaniqueagrumes (histoire)citrus fruitarchaeobotanycitrus cultivationMediterraneanMediterraneancitrus cultivationcitrus fruitarchaeobotanyHistory & Archaeologyagrumes (culture)archéobotaniqueagrumes (histoire)citrus fruitarchaeobotanycitrus cultivationMediterraneanBarone Lumaga Maria Rosaria1365262Bloquel Emmanuel1365263Bouchaud Charlène1309168Castillo Cristina176122Celant Alessandra1239454Costantino Gilles1365264Coubray Sylvie1294573Curk Franck1365265De Carolis Ernesto1320559Fiorentino Girolamo1297176Froelicher Yann1365266Fuller Dorian Q1365267Grasso Anna Maria1365268Gröschel Claudia1365269Hallavant Charlotte1365270Kingwell-Banham Eleanor1365271Langgut Dafna1365272Lemoine Michel442391Luro François1365273Mane Perrine318845Mavelli Fabio1365274Menale Bruno724515Morales Jacob1365275Ollitrault Patrick1365276Osanna Massimo327918Pagnoux Clémence1365277Pailly Olivier1365278Paulus Helmut-Eberhard1365279Qin Ling1365280Riolacci Simone1365281Ruas Marie-Pierre1238309Russo Ermolli Elda1365282Schram Valérie1365283Tomu Bruno1365284Tur Isabelle1365285van der Meer Wouter1365286van der Veen Marijke1365287Varamo François1365288Weisskopf Alison1365289Zech-Matterne Véronique1296892Zech-Matterne Véronique1296892Fiorentino Girolamo1297176FR-FrMaCLEBOOK9910251397303321AGRUMED: Archaeology and history of citrus fruit in the Mediterranean3386901UNINA
