of specimens of interest including archaeobotanical remains. HRXCT offers new possibilities in terms
of the research questions which may be asked of fragile and valuable archaeological and specifically
archaeobotanical material. This technology, although currently somewhat limited in terms of time and
access to beamtimes at National Synchrotrons, requires simple, non-destructive preparation of samples
and produces exciting results. Based upon two rounds of successful work, we believe that this new
methodology has wider implications and utility for advancing the field of imaging, and investigating
aspects of plant domestication such as internal anatomical changes.
