Dear Aldona,
Here are some references I have extracted from my
'Harvesting the ‘wild’?' article in VHA 24 (2015, the Thessaloniki
IWGP volume). There is one more ref to acorn use in Greece (as food)
in my article but it is in Greek so I am not listing it below:

Europe. In: Millson D (ed) Replication and interpretation: the
use of experimental archaeology in the study of the past. Oxbow
Books, Oxford, pp 7–28
