This poster presents the results of the anthracological analysis of 7990 charcoals collected from 28 charcoal kilns located between 1300 and 1500 m ASL in the Bernadouze forest (french Pyrenees). This study aims to reconstruct the specific practices and temporalities of wood use in relation to charcoal making activity. It's based on the analysis of the most frequently occurring bioindicators preserved in charcoals from archaeological context.
