I don't know if it's in any other files, but this study cites seeds of modern, small
seeded cucumbers found in an archaeological dig in Gniezno, Poland, in a 12th-century
setting (in other words, in the layer that indicated the material was from the 12th
century):
"Archaeobotanical Evidence for Food Plants in the Poland of the Piasts (10th-13th
Centuries AD)", M. Polcyn. Biological Journal of Scotland, vol 46, no 4, p 533-537.
