The First Plague Pandemic in the Byzantine Empire – Toward a New Dynamic Consensus
Babes, bones, and isotopes
The study of infant feeding practices in archaeological populations can aid in the understanding of cultural attitudes towards dietary choices and how specific circumstances experienced by mothers and their offspring influence childhood health and survivorship. Breastfeeding and weaning patterns have received increased interest in Roman bioarchaeology, especially through the application of stable isotopic investigation of nitrogen (δ15N) and carb…
Mobility and rickets
The aims of this study are twofold: first, to consider Vitamin D deficiency during two periods of growth and, second, consider Vitamin D deficiency with respect to evidence for migration and mobility in a skeletal assemblage (n = 169) from Aventicum, Roman Switzerland (first to third century CE). Vitamin D deficiency was evaluated macroscopically, and individuals with evidence of Vitamin D deficiency (n = 3) were assessed histologically for inter…
Life and death at the “The Land of Three Lakes”
The Bioarchaeology of Classical Kamarina
222 PHOENIX this final chapter with the bold suggestion that by commodifying the joke, the Romans invented the “joke” as we know it today. This book’s intriguing topic and accessible style will attract a wide audience. Beard’s ability to draw together a wide array of ancient and modern references in her discussions is impressive. Although it does not arrive (or even seek to arrive) at any definitive conclusions, Laughter in Ancient Rome succeeds …
Classical Archaeology in Context
The archaeology of Greece remains ensconced in traditional discourses of classics and art history. In recent decades, fieldwork has led to new research directions, allowing us to reevaluate classical archaeology as a distinct field generating its own research questions. This book compiles case studies of current fieldwork in the Greek world (ca. 800-100 B.C.), considering new data and approaches in shaping a discourse in Greek archaeology.
Exploring the Ancient Demos of Kymissaleis on Rhodes
Evidence of childhood scurvy in a Middle Byzantine Greek population from Crete, Greece (11th–12th centuries A.D.)
Nursing mothers and feeding bottles
Reconstructing the diets of Greek Byzantine populations (6th-15th centuries AD) using carbon and nitrogen stable isotope ratios
Documentary evidence and artistic representations have traditionally served as the primary sources of information about Byzantine diet. According to these sources, Byzantine diet was based on grain (primarily wheat and barley), oil, and wine, supplemented with legumes, dairy products, meat, and marine resources. Here, we synthesize and compare the results of stable isotope ratio analyses of eight Greek Byzantine populations (6th-15th centuries AD…
Health and Disease in Greece
The Middle Byzantine menu
We report here on the measurements of carbon and nitrogen stable isotopes of bone collagen from the Middle Byzantine site of Kastella, in the city of Heraklion, on the island of Crete, Greece. The data derived from the analysis suggest a diet based primarily on terrestrial, C3 protein, probably from animal sources, with the inclusion of some marine protein. The adult diet at this site is relatively uniform, with no detectable differences between …
Health patterns of proto-Byzantine populations (6th-7th centuries AD) in south Greece
Up to now, only scattered information exists about the history and bioarchaeology of proto-Byzantine Greece, since no abundant records or major excavation projects refer to this turbulent period in question, highly marked by historical, social, economic and environmental changes. The purpose of this study is to evaluate the impact of historical and environmental changes (i.e. invasions, natural disasters, such as earthquakes) on the health status…
