Animal or plant?
Published Tuesday 26 May 2009, by Olivier PUTELAT

A carpologist colleague found these residues in a sample from a subaquatic medieval context. She wondered if it can’t be preserved animal parts.

Can you help us in determining these remains? It’s in your opinion remains of plant or animal?

Thank you in advance.
