Increased C4 cultivation and consumption as an impetus for population growth at Badia Pozzeveri, Italy (11th–13th centuries CE)
The diet of the people buried at Badia Pozzeveri was mainly a mix of C 3 and C 4 terrestrial resources. • 15 of the analysed individuals experienced dietary changes over their lives. • Late Medieval diets in northwest Tuscany were characterized by increased millet consumption. • The gradual shift to millet consumption was likely due to population growth. The focus of this study is to target the paucity of bioarchaeological information related to …
Death in the Time of Pandemic
Cholera was one of the great killers of the 19th century. The pandemic waves that took place between 1823 and 1899 caused hundreds of thousands of deaths in the Mediterranean region and across Europe. However, the excavation of cholera cemeteries is very rare. This article presents the results of excavations at the cholera cemetery of Benabbio, a mountain village near Lucca (northwest Tuscany) in which cholera broke out in the late summer–early a…
Renaissance mercurial therapy in the mummies of Saint Domenico Maggiore in Naples
This study was designed to evaluate the use of mercury therapy in the Italian noble classes of the Renaissance through the toxicological analysis of hair content. Mercury has stability and a long half-life in hair, representing a great resource not only for forensic toxicological analysis but also for archaeological research on mercurial exposure in past populations. The hair of fourteen mummified individuals of the Aragon and vice-royal court of…
GPR versus Geoarchaeological Findings in a Complex Archaeological Site (Badia Pozzeveri, Italy)
The results of a Ground‐penetrating radar (GPR) survey were compared with the archaeological excavation outcomes of a twelfth century abbey site (Badia Pozzeveri). The goal was to associate the types of reflections recorded in GPR profiles and high‐amplitude features visible in amplitude maps with unearthed archaeological features. GPR profiles crossing the walls evidenced axes of hyperbolic point source reflections and short planar reflections r…
Rickets in a High Social Class of Renaissance Italy
Exploration of the Medici Chapels in the Basilica of San Lorenzo in Florence revealed the burials of nine juvenile members of the Medici family (16th-17th centuries). The estimated children's skeletal ages ranged from newborns to 5-year-olds, showing a series of bone abnormalities, in particular diffuse periosteal new bone and bowing of long bones. The comparable pathological lesions, including porosity evident on the skull, orbital roofs, costoc…
