Reconstruction of prehistoric pottery use from fatty acid carbon isotope signatures using Bayesian inference (2017)
Journal Article
Fernandes, R., Eley, Y., Brabec, M., Lucquin, A., Millard, A., & Craig, O. (2018). Reconstruction of prehistoric pottery use from fatty acid carbon isotope signatures using Bayesian inference. Organic Geochemistry, 117, 31-42. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.orggeochem.2017.11.014

Carbon isotope measurements of individual fatty acids (C16:0 and C18:0) recovered from archaeological pottery vessels are widely used in archaeology to investigate past culinary and economic practices. Typically, such isotope measurements are matched... Read More about Reconstruction of prehistoric pottery use from fatty acid carbon isotope signatures using Bayesian inference.

Londinium (48–410 CE) was the focus for Roman administration and trade in Britain; it was established and inhabited by people from across the Empire who continued to practice their diverse food-ways. Roman London was a unique settlement, whose fluctu... Read More about ‘From the mouths of babes’: a subadult dietary stable isotope perspective on Roman London (Londinium).

A comparison of using bulk and incremental isotopic analyses to establish weaning practices in the past (2017)
Journal Article

A comparison of using bulk and incremental isotopic analyses to establish weaning practices in the past. Science and Technology of Archaeological Research, 3(1), 126-134. https://doi.org/10.1080/20548923.2018.1443548

The use of incremental carbon and nitrogen isotopic analysis is gaining momentum as a way of establishing infant feeding practices in the past. Here we examine the differences in information gleaned through incremental isotopic techniques applied to...

Going south of the river: a multidisciplinary analysis of ancestry, mobility and diet in a population from Roman Southwark, London (2016)
Journal Article
Redfern, R., Gröcke, D., Millard, A., Ridgeway, V., Johnson, L., & Hefner, J. (2016).

Journal of Archaeological Science, 74, 11-22. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.jas.2016.07.016

This study investigated the ancestry, childhood residency and diet of 22 individuals buried at an A.D. 2nd and 4th century cemetery at Lant Street, in the southern burial area of Roman London. The possible presence of migrants was investigated using...

Poor preservation of antibodies in archaeological human bone and dentine (2016)
Journal Article

The growth of proteomics-based methods in archaeology prompted an investigation of the survival of non-collagenous proteins, specifically immunoglobulin G (IgG), in archaeological human bone and dentine. Over a decade ago reports were published on ex... Read More about Poor preservation of antibodies in archaeological human bone and dentine.
