- This substantial paper (c.17,000 words; 19 figures; 7 supporting files) represents 3 years (2015-2018) of international collaborative research on the anthracological assemblage from Franchthi Cave, (supported though Wiener Laboratory/ASCSA Fellowship; Leverhulme Trust/ECF). The study represents an extensive, multi-layered process of creative investigation conducted on an Eastern Mediterranean assemblage covering the timespan from the LGM to the mid-Holocene, also including a multivariate meta-analysis of the entire archaeobotanical corpus (394 samples; >40,000 items) published in the 1990s. Results are placed in their regional archaeological and palaeoecological context. The insights arise from research of an extended and complex scale, scope and detail.
