What about the delta (ẟ13C)? A case for brackish fish in Mediterranean palaeodietary isotopic baselines
Seventeen new ẟ 13 C and ẟ 15 N values reported from freshwater and estuarine fishes from the Levant. • Demonstration of the wide range (-27.97‰ to -10.87‰) of ẟ 13 C values encountered in ancient Mediterranean aquatic ecosystems. • Improved data available for constructing isotopic baselines and interpreting human palaeodiet. While a lot of paleodietary studies in the Mediterranean region have reported ẟ 13 C and ẟ 15 N values for humans, similar…
Investigating animal exploitation in Late Byzantine Greece: A zooarchaeological study from Ismenion, Thebes
An organized system of mutton production might have functioned during this time. • Meat was processed in a standardized way at the household level. • Habits of Western ethnic groups did not affect local animal husbandry and diet. • Fishing predominantly took place in near-shore marine environments and consisted of local species. This study investigates animal husbandry, fishing techniques, diet and their socio-economic implications within the cha…

Length estimation of Atlantic bluefin tuna ( Thunnus thynnus ) using vertebrae
Atlantic bluefin tuna ( Thunnus thynnus ; BFT) is a large (up to 3.3 m in length) pelagic predator which has been exploited throughout the eastern Atlantic and Mediterranean since prehistoric times, as attested by its archeological remains. One key insight derivable from these remains is body size, which can indicate past fishing abilities, the impact of fishing, and past migration behavior. Despite this, there exists no reliable method to estima…
Catch of the day: Abundance and size data of groupers (Epinephelidae) and combers (Serranidae) from Middle to Late Holocene Levantine archaeological contexts
Groupers (Epinephelidae) are ecologically, commercially, and culturally important carnivorous fishes found throughout the world’s tropical, subtropical, and temperate coastal marine waters. Due to various life history traits (e.g., late maturity, sequential hermaphroditism) and behavior (e.g., sedentary, small home ranges) groupers are susceptible to overfishing, including small-scale and recreational fishing (especially spearfishing), and their …
Honderd jaar archeozoölogie in Groningen
One hundred years of zooarchaeology in Groningen. In 1920, Albert Egges van Giffen founded the Biologisch-Archaeologisch Instituut. Even back in 1920, zooarchaeology was a main component of the institute’s research focus and van Giffen started a zooarchaeological reference collection. The zooarchaeology collection gradually expanded, and zooarchaeological research continued to be undertaken under the direction of, first, Prof. Dr. Anneke Clason, …
Potential applications of biomolecular archaeology to the ecohistory of sea turtles and groupers in Levant coastal antiquity
Humans have been exploiting marine resources along the Levantine coast for millennia. Advances in biomolecular archaeology present novel opportunities to understand the exploitation of these taxa in antiquity. We discuss the potential insights generated by applying collagen peptide fingerprinting, ancient DNA analysis, and stable isotope analysis to groupers (Serranidae) and sea turtles (Chelonia mydas and Caretta caretta) in the Levant. When com…
