Abstract
Dr. Nili Liphschitz, botanist and founder of the Laboratory of Archaeobotany of the Sonia and Marco Nadler Institute of Archaeology of Tel Aviv University, passed away on August 1, 2019 from severe medical complications of the lungs. In her botanical studies Nili contributed significantly to illuminating the ecology and evolution of wood and bark formation in Mediterranean trees and shrubs. Nili studied all three types of wood remains, but developed an impregnation method that enabled the preparation of quality anatomical sections from charred wood.
