１。「９０００年以上前に高知県の遺跡から蕎麦の実の花粉が発見された」 というのが原文ですが、この原文を見て発見した時が九千年以上前と思う人はいないでしょう。ところが英訳はそうも読めます。 また花粉が flour になっていますが、これは（蕎麦などの）粉のことで、下記のように pollen にしないと誤解を招きます。 https://eow.alc.co.jp/search?q=pollen 英訳では「高知県の廃墟」となり「コーチケンという荒れ果てたお城」のようです。ここでは archaeological site と一語付け加えたほうがいいように思います。 In Kochi Prefecture (on the island of Shikoku) at a site dated more than 9,000 years ago archaeologists found some buckwheat pollen とも。 ２。第二文 Soba was a familiar plant and food.＞ Buckwheat became a part of daily food.とも ３。第三文 a は要りません。 ４。第四文 At that time, they were eating buckwheat grains as we eat rice gruel today without grinding them into flour. とも。 ５。第六文 原文は「その調理方法は現在と違い蒸していた」ですが。 That cooking method was different from what it was today.ですと最後の一番大切なところが抜けています。 Unlike today's cooking method of boiling the noodles were steamed in the Edo period. とも。 ６。第十文 ご当地そばには「にしんそば」などがある、が原文ですが There is a place like [Shin-soba] near here. では誤訳です。 「にしん」は鰊で、下記のようにかけそばに身欠き鰊の甘露煮を乗せたものです。鰊は北海道が原産ですが「鰊蕎麦」は京都でできたという説もあります。 http://soba-ya.com/syokuzai/1380.html ニシンそばは、下記などをごらんください。 https://www.google.co.jp/search?q=%E3%83%8B%E3%82%B7%E3%83%B3%E3%81%9D%E3%81%B0&tbm=isch&source=hp&sa=X&ved=2ahUKEwjs5vX1s7DkAhUOW60KHXMNBtAQsAR6BAgEEAE&biw=1920&bih=852 One of the regional specialty soba is "Nishin-soba" with a herring in it. とも。 https://eow.alc.co.jp/search?q=%e9%b0%8a ７。他に色々訳し方があるでしょうから、これはほんの一例です。
