An Archaeobotanical Guide to Root and Tuber Identification : Europe and South West Asia v. 1 Paperback / softback
by Jon G. Hather
Part of the Oxbow Monographs in Archaeology series
Paperback / softback
Description
This book provides a visual index of microphotographs for identifying charred remains of roots and tubers from archaeological sites in Europe and the Near East.
Although often present in archaeological deposits, the vegetative organs of roots, tubers, rhizomes, corms have been poorly and erratically identified.
This manual, for laboratory use, presents a new methodology for the identification of the charred remains of roots and tubers from archaeological sites.
The fresh and charred morphology and anatomy of over seventy taxa are described and fully illustrated with 590 scanning electron micrographs.
