The research aimed to identify two sets of charcoal found in a Hellenistic house in Risan (Montenegro) on the Kotor Gulf. The finds date from the 3rd century BC.The study included macroscopic and microscopic observations. Based on macroscopic observation and taking into account the habitat requirements and the range of particular species near Risan and the Kotor Gulf, the first set of charcoal found near a ceramic vessel was attributed to fir wood (Abies sp.), while the charcoal found in the room “with the treasure” was attributed to oak wood (Quercus sp.). The study has added to the body of evidence in favor of the effective botanical identification of charcoal from archeological finds.
