摘要:Organic substances are rarely well-preserved at excavation sites. The older the site, the less of organic substances there is. One of the conditions that favor their preservation is burning without air, i.e. charring. Studies of this type of material require implementing a number of methods used, among others, in mineralogical sciences. Such methods were used in this publication.Studies of charred substances from the Tel el Fakha site, which are about 5 thousand years old, allowed us to recognize: burnt chopped cereals, burnt bread, wood tar, burnt vegetable tissues, burnt bones and fish bones.
