🗣️ New paper! 🗣️

The mobility patterns of the population of Gallo-Roman Tienen (Belgium) are keeping you up at night? Wondering if there is more than mobility reflected in these 87Sr/86Sr results? This is very relatable, and conveniently, I have the right paper for you! It's accessible right there 👇

Our bioavailable strontium baseline for Corsica is out! ⁸⁷Sr/⁸⁶Sr ranges from 0.7075 to 0.7169 and was established from 245 plant & soil leachate samples from 125 sites.

We are on our way to @isba11.bsky.social 🚅 Ready for a week of archaeology and science
🏺🦴🦷🧪⚛️🥼🍝🍕

🎉 Thrilled to share our new paper just published in @PLOSONE!

In this study we explored how weather & seasonality impact cremation conditions using experimental archaeology, FTIR-ATR, and isotope analysis.

👉 Read it here: journals.plos.org/plosone/articl…

Finally, @christophe-fire.bsky.social extinguished the fire with a Keynote presentation 🔥🧯

Guy de Mulder and @orianachiappa.bsky.social presented their most recent research on the lime burials of the Balearic Islands 🏝️⛰️🔥

This weekend our team traveled to Thessaloniki to celebrate the end of the #TEFRA project with two days of exciting conferences! 🔥🔥

@elliestam.bsky.social talked about how seasonality affects the cremation environment ❄️🌸☀️🍁, and what happens when bone reaches extremely high temperatures 🌡️🔥🦴

📣 Data, data, data 📣

The BBLAB crew spent the day compiling our isotope data in the @isoarch.bsky.social version 3.0 database! Thanks @isotopistrachel.bsky.social & @tloeffelmann.bsky.social for teaching us the ropes 🧗🏻‍♀️

📢 New paper alert! 📢

I’m really happy to share our latest publication in AJBA! We explore how sampling cremated petrous parts & teeth helps reconstruct life histories and cremation practices 🔥. You can find our paper through this link: doi.org/10.1002/ajpa... (1/6)

Paper Alert 🔥
Want to learn more about Roman cremations?
Can’t sleep because you keep thinking about how the Romans burned their dead?
Then don't miss our latest paper & download it for free here: kwnsfk27.r.eu-west-1.awstrack.me/L0/https:%2F...

The LOCO project is looking for 2 PhDs and 2 Post-docs in (bio-)archaeology, history, geochemistry, and digital humanities. This joint project between VUB, KUL, and UGent looks at the mobility of people, materials, and ideas in the Low Countries. Apply before 30 April 2025 😀

📞 Ypres calling! Special delivery📦🚚

Barbara, Martijn, and Charlotte visited the BAAC depot last Friday and collected the first batch of skeletons from the Sint-Maarten parish in Ypres🦴

But who were these medieval city-dwellers, and where did they come from..?🧪💀

Like for part 2?🤔
