X5858 is derived from a floor layer in a house. A limited amount of botanical remains, including one charred cereal grain, was found in the sample. Other seeds that have been found in this sample are Juncus sp. (siv), Sambucus nigra (almindelig hyld), Chenopodium sp. (gåsefod), Agrostemma githago and Thlaspi arvense. Additionally a few fish bones and insect remains were found. Since the sample only contains 10-15 seeds and a limited amount of other remains, it is difficult to say something about the activities carried out inside the house based on this sample.
