Bacterial Phylogenetic Markers in Lake Sediments as Evidence for Historical Hemp Retting
2022-08-01
Abstract excerpt
Documenting prehistoric and historical hemp retting for fiber extraction is important in the study of human uses of this iconic plant and its cultural implications. In paleoecology, hemp retting is usually inferred from indirect proxies, notably anomalously high percentages of Cannabis pollen in lake sediments, but some recent studies have also used specific molecular biomarkers (cannabinol, Cannabis DNA) as a mor...
