Hi all,
I would like to forward a request of my colleague Roman Hovsepyan,
archaeobotanist at the Institute of Botany in Yerevan, Armenia.
Does anyone know data or publications containing information about
distinguishing criteria for horse versus cattle faeces from
archaeological deposits? I assume they are easy to discriminate when
they have their original shape, but is there a possibility to identify
the origin in shapeless faeces too, e. g. by the content or condition of
plant fibres.
Best
Christian
