Corn was the word the English used to use for grains. And the new world had maize, which English settlers called corn. So the “corn” in the Bible, which by the way is not the language the Bible was first written in, was not what we call corn today.

I’ve been to Queen Hatshepsut’s Temple at Dier el-Bahri several times and yes there is a mural there that includes corn and a pineapple. Both new world foods.

I’ll see if I can post the photos later.
