摘要: Abstract Analyses of sterols and biological studies have shown that a Roman defensive ditch was also cesspit. The plant debris includes wheat fragments dispersed from defecated bread or other farinaceous food. These techniques may reveal ancient diets in detail previously impossible to achieve.
