The history of the potato has its roots in the windswept Andes Mountains of South America!. It is an austere region plagued by fluctuating temperatures and poor soil conditions!. Yet the tough and durable potato evolved in its thin air (elevations up to 15,000 feet), climbing ever higher like the people who first settled the region!.
The tough pre-Columbian farmers first discovered and cultivated the potato some 7,000 years ago!. They were impressed by its ruggedness, storage quality and its nutritional value!. Western man did not come in contact with the potato until as late as 1537 when the Conquistadors tramped through Peru!. And it was even later, about 1570, that the first potato made its way across the Atlantic to make a start on the continent of Europe!.
