PLANT REMAINS FROM ST MARK'S CHURCH, (SM76), LINCOLN

Author(s): L C Moffett

Excavations carried out in the 1970s in the suburb of Wigford produced evidence of Roman occupation. A drainage ditch and layers thought to be levelling prior to construction on wet ground were sampled for waterlogged plant remains. The plant remains suggested the presence of plants of disturbed ground, wet ground plants, and a few grassland or heathland plants. Evidence for cultivated plants was sparse though one of the levelling layers indicated the presence of coriander (Coriandrum sativum).
