BRAMPTON, CAMBRIDGESHIRE; CARBONISED PLANT REMAINS FROM A NEOLITHIC MORTUARY ENCLOSURE AND ASSOCIATED FEATURES
Author(s): P Murphy
Bulk samples from shallow features dug into gravels and sealed by c 0.5m of alluvium were processed. Modern root contamination was very bad, and severely hampered analysis. However some sparse assemblages of poorly preserved Triticum and Hordeum grains, a glume base of T. cf. dicoccum, large weed seeds, root and rhizome fragments, Corylus nutshell and Prunus spinosa fruitstone were retrieved. Charcoal was mainly of oak.
