‘The plants of Serdica (Sofia, Bulgaria) during the Antiquity (2nd c. AD – 6th c. AD): preliminary archaeobotanical and anthracological data’.
Abstract:
This talk will present the preliminary archaeobotanical and anthracological data, coming from material obtained from archaeological rescue excavations of ancient Serdica (Sofia, Bulgaria) during the Roman period and the Antiquity (2nd c. AD – 6th c. AD). The studied plant remains are retrieved from two different sectors, excavated in 2019 and 2020, of Serdica – being inside and outside of the ancient city borders. The results, which this talk will outline combine the analysis of vegetal remains coming from flotation samples along with hand-picked wooden remains and being preserved both charred and waterlogged.
Keywords: Archaeobotany, Anthracology, Serdica, Roman period, Antiquity, Balkans, Urban Archaeology.
