Dear colleagues,
Although this is not archaeobotany, I guess this mailing list is a suitable forum for a question like this.
Someone sent this photo to the Natural history museum in Stavanger, and it was forwarded to me. This object has drifted ashore on a beach here in Rogaland, southwestern Norway.
We’ve got no other information than the picture. I would guess it’s a plant part, probably a fruit or a root, but I may be very wrong.
Has anyone got a clue?
Best regards,
Trond
