- Charred cereal grains were found in low numbers in samples. The charred plant remains consisted of fragments of charcoal of identifiable size (>4mm2). The quality of preservation of most of these charred remains were poor and the absence of chaff to aid cereal grain identification means that the level of identification will only be to family, genus level or at most ‘cf’ species.
