Diet during the Reformation in Nya Lödöse (1473–1624)
This study employs an interdisciplinary approach to investigate diet at the Swedish town of Nya Lödöse (1473–1624 CE). The primary aim is to determine the proportions of aquatic and terrestrial foods consumed in the diet and to examine whether these proportions shifted after the Reformation in 1527. A secondary aim is to analyze variations in diet related to biological sex or social status. δ 13 C and δ 15 N stable isotope ratio analysis of bulk …
Multi-regional calibration of Patella caerulea as a palaeothermometer using oxygen isotope values and Mg/Ca ratios
This study presents a comprehensive calibration of the Patella caerulea as a palaeotemperature archive across the Central and Eastern Mediterranean, focusing on Mg/Ca ratios and δ18O values. We analysed 131 modern specimens collected from 22 localities, with a focus on the Aegean region. Our results demonstrate strong correlations between Mg/Ca ratios and the temperature proxy δ 18 O shell , with a mean R2 value of 0.89. These findings reinforce …
Did early medieval people living around the Venetian Lagoon heavily rely on fish? A re-interpretation of the isotopic data published by Battistel et al. (2024)
Skeletal fluorosis in Italy beyond Vesuvius? Multi-analytical evidence for an environment-linked pathology from the Alps
The incidence of a disease in a given period might be underestimated due to various factors, such as its non-endemic nature, variations in the pathocenoses, difficulty in establishing its aetiology, or changes in environmental factors related to its presence and development in a specific territory. Among these, we can consider fluorosis, a bone and dental disease resulting from excessive fluoride accumulation, causing heterotopic ossification and…
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 …
Isotopic and historical evidence of regional stockfish trade in the Skagerrak during the 16th century
Preserved fish was one of the main traded commodities in medieval and early modern times, and herring and cod were the socioeconomically most important species. This paper brings together stable isotope ratio analysis of archaeological cod bones and documentary data from customs records originating from the early modern Swedish town of Nya Lödöse (1473–1624 CE), shedding new light on the import of stockfish (dried cod). The combined results show …
It was a dog's breakfast! A radiocarbon and isotope‐based study of dogs exploring dietary change during the Mesolithic–Neolithic transition in Denmark
This paper examines newly acquired and previously published carbon and nitrogen isotope values in bone collagen from 58 dogs ( Canis familiaris ) dated to the Mesolithic–Neolithic transition. Using the Bayesian mixing model FRUITS, we estimate the marine or freshwater dietary fractions. These estimates, together with a radiocarbon‐based Bayesian statistical model, have allowed us to calculate the freshwater reservoir age for selected Danish regio…
Aquatic resource consumption at the Odense leprosarium
Isotopic reconstruction of diet at the Vandalic period (ca. 5th–6th centuries AD) Theodosian Wall cemetery at Carthage, Tunisia
Here we present the first isotopic investigation of a Vandalic period site (ca. 5th–6th centuries AD), the Theodosian Wall cemetery at Carthage, in modern day Tunis, Tunisia. The focus of this research is to determine the general diet and food consumption patterns of this population during this important and pivotal period of antiquity in North Africa. To this end, collagen stable isotope ratios (δ 13 C, δ 15 N) are reported for a variety of faun…
Leprosy in medieval Denmark
Objectives By focusing on two Danish leprosaria (Næstved and Odense; 13th–16th c. CE) and using diet and origin as proxies, we follow a multi‐isotopic approach to reconstruct life histories of patients and investigate how leprosy affected both institutionalized individuals and the medieval Danish community as a whole. Materials and Methods We combine archaeology, historical sources, biological anthropology, isotopic analyses (δ 13 C, δ 15 N, δ 34…

New data on agro-pastoral diets in southern Italy from the Neolithic to the Bronze Age
The socio-cultural and economic developments that took place from the Neolithic to the Bronze Age are poorly understood, despite the fact that they were essential for the establishment of fully agro-pastoral economies in Europe. In this study, we aim to assess dietary changes in communities living in southern Italy during this period by examining stable carbon and nitrogen isotope ratios on human bone collagen. In particular, we investigated skel…
Investigating dietary patterns and organisational structure by using stable isotope analysis
During the 12th and 13th centuries, numerous leprosy hospitals were founded in Europe. Given that leprosy was not considered infectious, this may reflect social dimensions of the disease. Aiming at exploring the impact of leprosy on medieval people and the organisation of the Danish leprosarium at Næstved, we reconstructed the diet of twenty patients using stable isotopes, and compared our results with relevant historical data. The isotope result…

The makers of the Protoaurignacian and implications for Neandertal extinction
Cultural prehistory in southern Europe The Protoaurignacian culture appeared in the southern European archeological record around 42,000 years ago and was characterized by artefacts including personal ornaments and bladelets. Archaeologists have debated whether it was ancestral Homo sapiens or Neandertals who made these tools and ornaments. Benazzi et al. analyzed dental remains from two Protoaurignacian sites in Italy and confirm that they were …
New chronology for Ksâr ‘Akil (Lebanon) supports Levantine route of modern human dispersal into Europe
Significance Bayesian modeling of AMS radiocarbon dates on the marine mollusk Phorcus turbinatus from Ksâr ‘Akil (Lebanon) indicates that the earliest presence of Upper Paleolithic (UP) modern humans in the Levant predates 45,900 cal B.P. Similarities in early UP lithic technology and material culture suggest population dispersals between the Levant and Europe around 50,000–40,000 cal B.P. Our data confirm the presence of modern humans carrying a…

A matter of taste? Mode and periodicity of marine mollusc exploitation on the Mediterranean island of Favignana (Ègadi Islands, Italy) during its isolation in the early Holocene
The exploitation of marine molluscs by Mediterranean hunter-gatherers increased from the Upper Palaeolithic onwards, although their role in subsistence has rarely been investigated fully. An ideal area to address this issue is the archipelago of the Ègadi Islands, most of which were isolated by Post-Glacial sea level rise. Here we report on the results of the study of the mollusc assemblage recovered during the 1972 excavations at Grotta d’Orient…

The late Pleistocene to Holocene palaeogeographic evolution of the Porto Conte area
Finding the early Neolithic in Aegean Thrace
Using a new approach that combines high-quality coring with AMS dating, the authors are mapping the start of the Neolithic in Aegean Thrace - a missing link in the arrival of agriculture in Europe. The method also revealed the edge of the marine transgression dating to some 2900 years ago, implying that sites located near the coast in early Neolithic times have in all likelihood been lost to the sea

A site for all seasons? Prehistoric coastal subsistence in northwest Sicily
There has been much debate about the role of marine resources, including shellfish, in prehistoric human diets, but there have been few studies that combine archaeological and present-day ecological investigations of coastal sites. This dual approach is being applied in a new field- and laboratory-based project that focuses on a group of coastal sites in northwest Sicily
Mesolithic middens and molluscan ecology
Large accumulations of marine shells are characteristic of mesolithic coastal sites in northwest Europe, but how intensively shellfish were exploited remains controversial. Excavation of a midden on the Isle of Portland and ecological study of presentday molluscs suggest that prehistoric human exploitation may have had a significant impact on local shellfish populations
