Interview of Rachel Kulick, the project micromorphologist


Patrice Bonnafoux: Hi Rachel, so you're the project micromorphologist, could you tell us what is micromorphology?

Rachel Kulick: Micromorphology is an approach to studying intact soil/sediment samples using microscopic techniques. 


The purpose is to identify the different soil/sediment parts and other contextual materials (like pieces of human-made tools -yes, it was not only the men, fragments of food, etc.) and to recognize the relationships between these components.
