description | The macrobotanical remains were recovered from the Early
Historic vessel from Gilund, Rajasthan by employing dry and wet sieving techniques in
the Palaeobotany laboratory. The retrieved archaeobotanical material was in carbonized
and semi-carbonized state. It involves cultivated barley grains, a single cut grain of
rice and a seeds of weed plant along with a bulk of wood charcoal pieces. These could
survive in the carbonized state by being exposed to heat or fire. The impressions of
grass leaves were found on well backed brickbats occurred in the vessel. Few molluscan
shells were also retrieved during wet sieving. |
