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.
