In 2016, about 40 years after the first dendrochronological investigation of the ‘Bremen Cog’, a new comprehensive analysis was carried out, which included an examination of timber quality. The new dating of 55 samples matches with the 1960s’ results. However, their provenance was established in the direct hinterlands of Bremen. The anatomical features of the vessel's timber reflect heavily exploited forests in the vicinity of a late medieval town. They comply with the forest history of the western part of the North European Plain and can be considered critical for quality in shipbuilding
