Naître et grandir dans l’Algérie préhistorique. Premières approches biogéochimiques sur des sépultures du site de Columnata (XIe-IXe millénaire BP, Tiaret, Algérie)
Découvert dans les années 1930, le site de Columnata (Sidi Hosni, Tiaret, Algérie) a livré du matériel archéologique et funéraire de plusieurs phases chrono-culturelles, de l’Épipaléolithique au Néolithique. Les dernières fouilles (2016-2023) conduites par l’Institut d’Archéologie d’Alger ont mis au jour différentes sépultures d’adultes et d’enfants datant du XIe au IXe millénaires BP. Dans le cadre du projet WomenSOFar (ANR-21-CE03-0008), les co…
Neolithic Lifeways at the Microlevel
Characterization of prehistoric lifeways tends to work at the level of generalization, but can we investigate microvariation? For example, it is common to discuss the “Neolithic diet”, but how much did what people ate vary, not only between individuals but from year to year or from place to place? Similarly, discussions of mobility tend to focus either on large‐scale population movements or on lifelong changes in residence, implying that people r…

Analyses invasives, micro-invasives et non-invasives des vestiges anthropobiologiques
First Swiss alpine agropastoral societies
The aim of this study is to add new data to the knowledge of the first alpine agro-pastoral societies by studying their dietary practices and mobility. Using the principles of isotopic biogeochemistry, the stable isotope ratios of carbon (δ13 C), nitrogen (δ15 N) and sulphur (δ34 S) on bone collagen and strontium isotopes (87Sr/86Sr) on dental enamel were measured to discuss the diet and residence history of 49 individuals from the Middle Neolith…
Analyses invasives, micro-invasives et non-invasives des vestiges anthropobiologiques
Les progrès techniques et scientifiques de ces 40 dernières années ont profondément bouleversé les champs disciplinaires de l’anthropologie biologique. Le développement des analyses biologiques sensu lato, et de l’anthropologie virtuelle, ont amené les anthropologues à modifier à la fois leurs approches théoriques sur les sujets qu’ils étudient, mais aussi leur "vision" des vestiges anthropobiologiques qui constituent leur premier support d’étude…

Inférences sur les réseaux régionaux à partir d'arbres génétiques locaux, l'exemple du site néolithique de Gurgy 'les Noisats
La reconstitution de la parenté génétique dans des contextes archéologiques a longtemps été impossible, mais grâce à l’optimisation récente des méthodes d’analyse de l’ADN ancien, on peut désormais reconstituer de manière fiable des généalogies génétiques, parfois importantes. L’analyse génomique approfondie du site français du Néolithique moyen de Gurgy 'les Noisats', dans le Bassin parisien, nous a permis de reconstruire deux arbres conséquents…
Étude biologique des sujets mésolithiques de l'Abri du Squelette (Les Eyzies, Dordogne, France)
L’Abri du Squelette, découvert en 1938 sur les rives de la Vézère (Dordogne, France) a livré les restes squelettiques d’au moins 3 individus qui n’ont été que récemment reconnus comme mésolithiques. La collection ostéologique est composée de vestiges recueillis lors de deux opérations archéologiques (2012, 2018) et de ceux conservés au Musée national de Préhistoire. Une étude biologique interdisciplinaire de ces restes humains a été entreprise. L…
A Longobard osteobiography. A multi-proxy life history of an elderly woman from Castel Trosino (Italy)
The Longobard cemetery of Castel Trosino (Central Italy, c. 6th-8th CE) was excavated at the end of the 19th century, with more than two hundred burials recovered. Currently only 19 crania and a few mandibles are preserved. Among these crania, a case of trepanation is documented on an elderly woman (c. 50 y.o.): the medical treatment, or the condition that led to it, likely influenced her life history. A multidisciplinary investigation of the onl…
Growing up in an Italian Copper Age community
The study of children’s role in past communities is difficult to face in archaeology. An active contribution of the children in everyday life varies within societies and cultures, as well as the social and biological definition of childhood. In Central Italy, specific funerary customs for subadults are documented in the Copper Age (4th-3rd millennia BCE) according to age classes. Here we propose to investigate childhood in an Italian Copper Age h…

Carbon and nitrogen isotopic variability in bone collagen during the Neolithic period
Longitudinal Study of Stable Isotope Compositions of Maternal Milk and Implications for the Palaeo-Diet of Infants
The classic interpretation of stable isotope data from young children in an archaeological context is based on the hypothesis that the nitrogen isotope ratios present in breast milk remain identical throughout the breastfeeding period. This exploratory study assesses the changes in the nitrogen and carbon isotope ratios in maternal milk and in the nails of the mother and child, with the aim to evaluate the impact of variations in the stable isoto…
Late Upper Palaeolithic human diet
This article reports results of carbon (13C/12C) and nitrogen (15N/14N) stable isotope analysis performed on the bone collagen of a Late Epigravettian human individual and 11 faunal remains from the Upper Palaeolithic deposits of Riparo Tagliente (Verona, Italy). Riparo Tagliente is located in Valpantena on the pre-alpine massif of Monti Lessini, at 250 m a.s.l. Its strategic position, about halfway from the plain and the top of the limestone pla…
Southern French Neolithic populations
The Middle Neolithic of the Northwestern Mediterranean area (∼4500–3500 BC cal) is characterized by the development of food production techniques as well as by increasing social complexity. These characteristics could have had an impact on human dietary patterns. To evaluate human dietary practices and lifeways of the Middle Neolithic populations from the South of France, stable carbon and nitrogen isotope analysis was carried out on 57 human and…
Stratégies de subsistance et analyse culturelle de populations néolithiques de Ligurie
Literature proves the importance of the role of information technology in increasing the effectiveness of virtual R&D teams’ communication for new product development. However, the factors that make information technology construct in a virtual R&D team are still ambiguous. Managers of virtual R&D teams for new product development do not know “which type of technology should be used”. To address the gap and answer the question, the paper presents…
First Strontium Isotope Evidence of Mobility in the Neolithic of Southern France
This study presents the first 87 Sr/ 86 Sr isotope results obtained on Neolithic humans from Southern France. These analyses aimed at exploring patterns of mobility in the Languedoc and Garonne areas, at sites dated to the Middle Neolithic ( c . 4500–3500 cal BC). Strontium isotope analysis of tooth enamel and bone are a useful geochemical tracer to investigate the origin and residential mobility of ancient people. Strontium isotope ratios ( 87 S…
A Multidisciplinary Approach to Neolithic Life Reconstruction
The expansion of Neolithic stable isotope studies in France now allows distinct regional population-scale food patterns to be linked to both local environment influences and specific economic choices. Carbon and nitrogen isotope values of more than 500 humans and of animal samples also permit hypotheses on sex-biased human provenance. To advance population scale research, we here present the first study that draws together carbon (C), nitrogen (N…
A multi-isotope analysis of Neolithic human groups in the Yonne valley, Northern France
With the arrival of the Neolithic to Europe, new ways of life and new subsistence strategies emerged. In the Paris Basin (northern France), the appearance of some monumental funerary structures during theMiddle Neolithic highlights in particular the increasing complexity of the social organisation. At the same time, several sites, such as open-air cemeteries, do not display any evidence of such arrangement. In the southeast of this area, the two …
Dietary Variability During Bronze Age in Central Italy
This research aims at delineating the dietary practices in Central Italy during the Bronze Age. The study of food choices is a mean for investigating palaeoenvironmental agricultural and economic activities and social relationships, which have been little explored until now in Italy from this specific perspective. Recent researches have showed that the Middle Bronze Age is a crucial period of dietary changes in Italy. Following these first observ…

Microbotanical evidence for the spread of cereal use during the Mesolithic-Neolithic transition in the Southeastern Europe (Danube Gorges)
Investigating the diet of Mesolithic groups in the Southern Alps
Stable isotopic data (δ13C; δ15N) were obtained from Mesolithic human and faunal remains from northeastern Italy in order to document the human diet and provide information on the relationship between landscape use and subsistence strategies. The bone samples were from an adult female individual (Early Mesolithic, Late Sauveterrian) buried at Vatte di Zambana (Trento), an adult male (Late Mesolithic, Castelnovian) buried at Mondeval de Sora (Bell…
A combined analysis of dietary habits in the Bronze Age site of Ballabio (northern Italy)
Laboratory Excavation of a Neolithic Grave from Avignon-La Balance-Ilot P (France)
The grave of La Balance-Ilot P, in Avignon, southern France, is an individual and isolated burial, attributed in the 1970′s to the Mesolithic or the Early Neolithic. The grave, partially unearthed, was exhibited and stored at the Calvet Museum until its rediscovery and laboratory excavation in 2009. We used 3D laser recording and field anthropological methods, followed by a multidisciplinary approach. The deceased, an adult male, was buried in pr…
Dietary changes and millet consumption in northern France at the end of Prehistory
Diachronic changes of dietary human habits between the Neolithic and the Bronze Age are mainly identified through archaeological artefacts and archaeozoological and archaeobotanical studies. This paper aims to demonstrate the importance of a multi-disciplinary approach for palaeodietary studies and to identify the food changes between Neolithic and Bronze Age human groups in northern France. These changes are probably linked to the introduction o…
Shifting weaning practices in Early Neolithic Cis-Baikal, Siberia
Reconstructing individual dietary histories at Shamanka II, an Early Neolithic (7000-5700 cal. BP) Kitoi hunter-gatherer cemetery in Cis-Baikal, Siberia, revealed surprising intrapopulation variability in childhood diets. Stable isotope analytical data produced by micro-sampled first molars identified changes in both the timing and rate of weaning for different individuals. Further, examination within the framework of a high-resolution radiocarbo…

The region considered is particularly interesting for its environmental diversity and for the possibility of exploiting various food resources. The acquisition of new Neolithic palaeodietary data in a geographic area not …
Sex and age-related social organization in the Neolithic
Social Dynamics and Resource Management Strategies in Copper Age Italy
Although the amount of data on the Italian Copper Age has increased significantly in the last decades, little is known about the relationship between humans and the environment. Material culture suggests the occurrence of significant social interactions throughout the Italian Peninsula, while the funerary practices indicate that Copper Age groups were strongly rooted in their territories. Here, we attempt to define the relations within Copper Age…
Isotopic evidence of diet variation at the transition between classical and post-classical times in Central Italy
New insights on Neolithic food and mobility patterns in Mediterranean coastal populations
OBJECTIVES: The aims of this research are to explore the diet, mobility, social organization, and environmental exploitation patterns of early Mediterranean farmers, particularly the role of marine and plant resources in these foodways. In addition, this work strives to document possible gendered patterns of behavior linked to the neolithization of this ecologically rich area. To achieve this, a set of multiproxy analyses (isotopic analyses, dent…
New Insights into Mesolithic Human Diet in the Mediterranean from Stable Isotope Analysis
Mesolithic human remains are rare in the archaeological record of the French Mediterranean. Only the island of Corsica has so far produced relatively well-preserved burials, and recent archaeological excavations have brought to light new Mesolithic human remains. The site of Campu Stefanu, located in Sollacaro in the southeast of the island, contained a collective burial of seven to eight individuals in a previously unobserved funerary context. A…

“Mind the gap”—Assessing methods for aligning age determination and growth rate in multi‐molar sequences of dietary isotopic data
OBJECTIVES: Creating multi-tooth sequences of micro-sampled stable isotope (SI) analytical data can help track 20+ years of individual dietary history. Inferences about individual and population level behavioral patterns require cross-calibration of the timing of dietary changes recorded by each tooth. Dentin sections from contemporaneous tissues (eg, in M1 and M2) reflect dietary signature for the time of growth. Contemporary sections should pro…
To ‘seafood’ or not to ‘seafood’?” An isotopic perspective on dietary preferences at the Mesolithic-Neolithic transition in the Western Mediterranean
Stable isotope investigations of the Prehistory of the Western Mediterranean have increased exponentially during the last decade. This region has a high number of Mesolithic and Neolithic carbon and nitrogen isotope ratio data available compared with other world areas, resulting from the interest in the "transition" between hunter-gathering and farming. This type of analysis is important as one of the few tools that give direct information on the…
