Charred grains of wheat (\*Triticum vulgare compactum\*), rice (\*Oryza sativa\* L.), legumes, oil-seeds and seeds of fruit \[2\] suggest agriculture as the means of subsistence, though bones of both domestic and wild animals have also been found in large numbers \[1\]. These show the consumption of beef, pork and venison.
