Food Equality
Biomolecular archaeology has significantly advanced our understanding of ancient foodways. However, the inevitable methodological biases of those novel methods might give deviating, even contradictory results. This paper highlights the major challenges of, but also potential solutions for, combining and comparing multiproxy dietary data. A rich dataset covering human skeletal remains, pottery, and zooarchaeological records from habitation and bur…
Archaeobotany in Estonia – history, state of the art and future perspectives
Archaeobotany is currently an underutilised discipline in Estonian archaeological research. This paper sheds light on the current state of archaeobotanical research in Estonia by analysing the spatial and temporal distribution of archaeobotanical sampling across three time periods: until 1980, 1981â 1999, and 2000â 2024. We outline the usages of archaeobotany and the benefits that the analysis of plant remains can offer in acquiring a deeper und…
Segregated food culture? Bronze Age (1250–500 cal BCE) dietary practices in northern Estonia
Multi-proxy study reveals Bronze Age diet in Estonia was plant-based. • C3 plants were staple food across all social groups. • Meat and fish intake increased after 800 cal BCE. • No dietary differences between stone-cist and hilltop groups. • Regional dietary differences begin to emerge across the Eastern Baltic. The Bronze Age (2000/1750–500 BCE) in the Eastern Baltic has been considered a period for increased social stratification. While previo…
