Abstract The abstract describing the content of the publication or report |
The discovery of `straw rope', in 1977, associated with thousands of bee fragments led to the deduction that the fibre was part of a bee `skep' or domed hive. This quickly became archaeological lore despite no comparative physical analysis. The concomitant bee fragments were analysed some years later and were confirmed as examples of the British black bee. However, when the `skep' piece was sought for analysis it was found to be missing. |
