X4017 is derived from a dung layer in a box. The sample contained many seeds and large amounts of straw and stems often appearing as compressed flakes, which could suggest animal dung. Presence of bran (klid) and larger grain fragments however suggests that also human dung is present. An analysis of the plant material can give further insight into the character of the dunglayer.
