Where did pepper come from new world or old world?

Pepper, specifically black pepper (Piper nigrum), is native to the Old World, particularly the tropical regions of India and Southeast Asia. It has been used as a spice for thousands of years and was highly valued in ancient trade. In contrast, the New World refers to the Americas, where pepper plants were not indigenous. Thus, pepper originated in the Old World.
