Abstract
The article describes the anatomical structure of the wood of Protea madiensis Oliv., belonging to the Proteaceae family which mainly occupies the African and Australian part of the southern hemisphere. Specifically, its wide rays are well preserved in archeological and prehistorical charcoal samples. In addition, it is a strong ecological indicator for a savanna environment. Together, these two facts make this species a significant contributor to paleoenvironmental studies.
