Roman archaeological breads: a methodological approach

Four charred, bread-like objects were discovered in both domestic and funerary contexts at several sites: Saint-Vulbas (Ain, 01), L’Hospitalet-du-Larzac - La Vayssière (Aveyron, 12), Les Martres d’Artière - Les Quaires (Puy-de-Dôme, 63), and Onnaing – Toyota (Nord, 59), al...

סיכום:Four charred, bread-like objects were discovered in both domestic and funerary contexts at several sites: Saint-Vulbas (Ain, 01), L’Hospitalet-du-Larzac - La Vayssière (Aveyron, 12), Les Martres d’Artière - Les Quaires (Puy-de-Dôme, 63), and Onnaing – Toyota (Nord, 59), all dating back to the Gallo-Roman era. These objects were analyzed using scanning electron microscopy (SEM) to characterize and identify their components, such as pericarp, awn remains, glumes, and fibers. Additionally, micro-CT techniques were employed to examine the three-dimensional structure of the bread, allowing for a detailed investigation of local porosity. This study aims to improve our understanding and classification of these fermented substances and to propose a standardized data acquisition form.
