| Description | Minute remains of wood fragments, empty insect puparia and textiles were observed in corrosion products of metal objects (bronze temple rings, iron knives) recovered from an 11th century Slavonic cemetery Diváky - Padělky za humny. Microscopic fibrous structures were noted on five temple rings. Some of them are probably remains of human hair. This research presents a quantitative analysis of these remains and discusses aspects of the methodology used in their assessment and interpretation. |
