Abstract The abstract describing the content of the publication or report |
Archaeoentomological and palaeobotanical research at the LBA site of Akrotiri has suggested that natural insect repellents were used in the storerooms of the site. A wide range of methods such as airtight storage, use of plant and animal substances, oils, minerals and ash were employed to control insect pests and reduce storage losses. Archaeological evidence from other sites as well as relevant information given by the documentary sources and the ethnographic record is reviewed. | |
