VEREN, MIJTEN EN EEN LUIS

Samenvatting

During the excavation at the former Wol­ters-Noordhoff complex in Groningen in 1990, four complete feathers and a dozen fragments of feathers were found in a late medieval (13th century) dung deposit. The feathers were identified as belonging to either Carrion Crow (Corvus corone corone) or Rook (Corvus frugilegus). On the feath­ers the remains were found of two feather­mites (Analgesidae) and a feather-louse (Mallophaga).
