Abstract: |
Bulk samples from Late Saxon pits and other features produced charred and mineral-replaced plant material. Charred cereal grains, pulse seeds and hazel nutshell were thought to represent domestic food waste. Mineral-replaced assemblages (concretions, plant macrofossils, fly puparia etc) were typical of urban latrine pits. Marine mollusc shells from the site included very immature specimens, possibly material discarded from shellfish catches. |
