Abstract

PlantCult Project aims to explore the role of culinary traditions and innovations through their impact on shaping the social landscape in ancient Europe over long time periods (from the Neolithic period to the Iron Age) and large territories. The experimental program is part of an integrated study of food products and associated equipment focusing on whether the introduction of new species or changes in social and economic organisation brought about changes in the food grinding technologies of the area. The experiments include tools operated by back and forth reciprocal motion and circular motion, and manufactured from different raw materials, with different morphologies and sizes. The tools design and the list of plant ingredients (cereals, legumes, acorns and oil-seeds) ground in the experiments are all based on the archaeological record of the studied area. In this paper we present the experimental protocol, the multi-scale methodology applied to the use-wear analysis of grinding stone tools, and the results of the experimental processing of the main plant ingredients detected in prehistoric European cuisine.

食品加工厂：ERC项目PLANTCULT中的实验研磨

PlantCult项目旨在探索烹饪传统和创新的作用，通过它们对塑造古代欧洲社会景观的影响，在很长一段时间(从新石器时代到铁器时代)和大范围的领土。该实验项目是食品和相关设备综合研究的一部分，重点是新物种的引入或社会和经济组织的变化是否会带来该地区食品研磨技术的变化。实验包括前后往复运动和圆周运动的工具，由不同的原材料制成，具有不同的形态和尺寸。在实验中，工具的设计和植物成分(谷物、豆类、橡子和油籽)的清单都是基于研究地区的考古记录。在本文中，我们提出了实验方案，应用于磨石工具使用磨损分析的多尺度方法，以及史前欧洲菜肴中检测到的主要植物成分的实验处理结果。

期刊介绍： Accounts of Chemical Research presents short, concise and critical articles offering easy-to-read overviews of basic research and applications in all areas of chemistry and biochemistry. These short reviews focus on research from the author’s own laboratory and are designed to teach the reader about a research project. In addition, Accounts of Chemical Research publishes commentaries that give an informed opinion on a current research problem. Special Issues online are devoted to a single topic of unusual activity and significance. Accounts of Chemical Research replaces the traditional article abstract with an article "Conspectus." These entries synopsize the research affording the reader a closer look at the content and significance of an article. Through this provision of a more detailed description of the article contents, the Conspectus enhances the article's discoverability by search engines and the exposure for the research.
