It is not known exactly where pumpkins originated from, but it is thought that they originally came from somewhere in North America. The oldest pumpkin seeds were found in Mexico and they have been dated at somewhere between 7000 and 5500 BC.
Several large pumpkins. A pumpkin is a cultivar of a squash plant, most commonly of Cucurbita pepo, that is round, with smooth, slightly ribbed skin, and deep yellow to orange coloration. The thick shell contains the seeds and pulp. Some exceptionally large cultivars of squash with similar appearance have also been derived from Cucurbita maxima. Specific cultivars of winter squash derived from other species, including C. argyrosperma, and C. moschata, are also sometimes called pumpkin.
