The Maglemosian skeleton from Koelbjerg, Denmark revisited

open access: yesDanish Journal of Archaeology, 2017
The Koelbjerg individual, dated c. 8500 cal BC, represents the earliest human skeletal remains described from Scandinavia. Based on ancient DNA, strontium isotope and statistical anthropological analyses the individual’s sex, haplogroup and geographical

Application of Eichrom Sr Resin to the Separation and Enrichment of Lead and Strontium in Uranium Ore Concentrates

open access: yesYankuang ceshi, 2019
BACKGROUND The traceability study of uranium ore concentrates plays an important role in nuclear forensics. By measuring the abundance ratios of lead and stontium isotopes, the results can provide some geographical indication information for traceability.

Strontium and oxygen isotopes to trace mobility routes during the Bell Beaker period in the north of Spain

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2021
Strontium and oxygen isotopes of individuals from El Hundido and Valdescusa (north of Spain) sites, corresponding to the Bell Beaker culture, were analysed in order to determine mobility patterns and provenance areas.

Determination of strontium isotope ratios in plant samples by wet ashing digestion

open access: yesResults in Earth Sciences
Strontium isotope provenance analysis has been widely applied across multiple disciplines, including archaeology, food science, and forensics. The establishment of bioavailable ⁸⁷Sr/⁸⁶Sr maps, known as isoscapes, which rely on a substantial number of ...

Strontium isotopes as an indicator of human migration – easy questions, difficult answers

open access: yesAnthropological Review, 2015
Isotope analyses of bones and teeth allow us to study phenomena which occurred in the history of human species and which are difficult to capture by traditional anthropological methods. Measuring oxygen, nitrogen and carbon isotope levels in the skeleton

Combining stable isotope ratios with elemental concentrations to improve the estimation of terrestrial carnivore diets

open access: yesGlobal Ecology and Conservation, 2023
Stable isotopes of animal tissue have been used to estimate diet for many consumer species and places, but the ability to assign contributions to all food items is limited by the number of tracers used, and the separation of the tracer data among the ...

Defining the Estonian strontium isoscape for archeological and paleoecological provenance studies [PDF]

open access: yesEesti Arheoloogiaajakiri
Strontium isotope analysis has been used in archeology for about 40 years to study the prov­enance and mobility of ancient humans and animals. The interpretation of strontium isotope compositions in archeological materials requires a reference isotopic ...
