Taphonomy - Plants
5 important questions on Taphonomy - Plants
What are the steps in research of starch grains?
2. First human interaction with the plant
3. Discard and burial
4. Excavation and labaratory processing
Starch grains research: strarch production
- Produce micro remains in different quantities and in different forms
- Can vary between plants of the same species
- Variation is not necessarily due to human behavior
Starch grains research: first human interaction with the plant
- Higher grades + faster learning
- Never study anything twice
- 100% sure, 100% understanding
Starch grains research: discard and burial
- Discard can move around the starch assemblage
- Burial and the post burial processes can change the appearance of the starch or completely or remove it from the assemblage
Starch grains research: excavation and labaratory processing
- Depends on the excavation techniques, curation methods and lab techniques.
- You can remove starches from the assemblage if you don't collect them carefully enough
- The place of storage and the laboratory can introduce conteminous starches to the collection
The question on the page originate from the summary of the following study material:
- A unique study and practice tool
- Never study anything twice again
- Get the grades you hope for
- 100% sure, 100% understanding
