They were originally a native 01 Southern Europe and Asia, and have probably been used for food in the Orient for thousands of years. Even in Europe they were cultivaretl yeais before the dawn of the Christian on... These seeds have been found in the lake dwellings of Switzerland, show ing that they were used as a food during Itlhe Bronze Age. This hardy annual is found w1':l1 two main types; one with a \V1'i.nlklr.d seed and one m'th a smooth round contour. While the plants are usual ly grown for seeds, there are se\'e.ra.l varimies with thick gre-en edible pods, which may be -eaten very much as we use green beans, and whzich are extensively used in Europe, bul. have not been well introduced in this country.
