X5967 contains a cereal grain from Avena sp. (havre) and some seeds (<10) from Chenopodium sp. (gåsefod), Persicaria sp. (pileurt) and cf. Potentilla sp. (potentil). In addition to the botanical remains, some sphagnum, fish bones and insect remains have been found.
The question related to the sample was whether it was possible to see if the sample has been derived from a trench or a well. There is not enough botanical material present in the subsample to make interpretations about the function of the feature. Considering the low amount of botanical remains, further analysis of the sample is not recommended.
