A group of at least 15 wood written pills have been discovered in ancient wells in the eastern French city of Eznoor. Pills and other rare organic remnants were beautifully protected by the water -filled environment and low light and oxygen levels.
In 2020, the French National Institute for Rescue Archaeological Research (INRAP) was excavated by four Roman era wells. Archaeologists have found wood items at all stages of production, including shaving and bending offcuts, spaces and manufactured items such as comb, pixes (small boxes) and spindle stares. Spaces and offspring confirm a promoted local skill that places special emphasis on boxwood products. The remains of Ash, Hazel and Maple were also found. The region was well known in the 18th century for artisanal wooden comb, so double toothpaste spaces prove that they were locally manufactured for about 2,000 years.
Written bullets may also have been manufactured locally. There are many small pieces that are thought to be scraping, and a tablet that looks like a draft or template. Most of the bullets were single “leaves”. The other was hollowed out to place two opposing leaves on each side of the spinal cord for the assembly in the codex. Engraved with a word that can be named. In another example, six lines were written in ink. Archaeologists believe it was a reused pill, as it is completely hollow. The hollow was usually full of wax to scratch with styls. Ink bullets were no hollow.
Well excavated two full shoes made of maple wood. There were two losers in this style of the shoe, one on the heel, one in an institute, which placed the wearer’s feet above the ground. In the large part of the soles there were small nails all around the edge, where leather pieces or straps covered the front of the foot. There was a hole for a leather strap between the fingers in the small single, such as the thong flip flop, as well as an attached point in the installation for another strap. Both shoes are small, which is aimed at the feet of children 6-7 and 4-5 years.
These items recovered from the wells were studied and analyzed by the wood experts. They have now been displayed at the Exhibition Archaeological Museum at an exhibition dedicated to good excavation.
