Dear all, I asked Wim Kuijper about the nutmeg find on a Dutch ship wreck, and it is Burgzand North 8 (unpublished, sinking of the ship dated around 1660), indeed another wreck than the published Burgzand North 4 which contained barrels with coffee beans (published in Analecta Praehistorica Leidensia). oTTo ________________________________ Van: The archaeobotany mailing list [[log in to unmask]] namens Sabine Karg [[log in to unmask]] Verzonden: woensdag 23 april 2014 11:20 Aan: [log in to unmask] Onderwerp: SV: Nutmeg finds Dear Karen, For the archaeobotanical records from Northern Europe (Baltic Sea region incl.
