HIGHLIGHTS
  • Waterlogged plant remains filling 11 vessels were studied at two LUC sites in Poland
  • The results contribute to discussions about the history of European grasslands
  • It may be that as early as the EIA, diverse semi-natural grasslands began to develop
  • The origin of the plant remains is discussed in the context of founding offerings
KEYWORDS
ABSTRACT
During the archaeological exploration of two Lusatian Urnfield Culture settlements, dated to the Early Iron Age and located in north-central Poland, 11 well-preserved clay vessels filled with waterlogged botanical remains were discovered. Their position and context led archaeologists to suggest a possible function of these vessels as foundation offerings. Accordingly, the results of archaeobotanical analyses were discussed within this context. The qualitative and quantitative richness of the subfossil samples collected from these vessels also offered an opportunity to provide data on the vegetation that developed in the vicinity of both settlements. This study focuses on grassland vegetation as a contribution to the broader history of grasslands in different European regions. The potential and limitations of reconstructing ancient vegetation and land use from archaeobotanical material of complex origin are also discussed.
