Abstract

The article deals with analysis results from samples found at archeological site Torčec - Gradić, nearby Koprivnica. The samples originate from earth layers of the Bronze Era, Advanced (13th century) and late Middle Ages (15th century). Botanical remains are mostly from wild-growing plants, which show presence and influence of man, as well as high humidity of the region, where this locality is situated. To a smaller extent we found cultivated species, which indicate population in agriculture (barley, Hordeum vulgare and Triticum spelta), vineyard growing (vineyard, Vitis vinifera) and fruit orchards (peach, Prunus persica).
