An investigation of cattle birth seasonality using δ13C and δ18O profiles within first molar enamel (2014)
Journal Article
Towers, J., Gledhill, A., Bond, J., & Montgomery, J. (2014). An investigation of cattle birth seasonality using δ13C and δ18O profiles within first molar enamel. Archaeometry, 56(S1), 208-236. https://doi.org/10.1111/arcm.12055Cattle (Bos taurus) are biologically able to breed year-round, potentially giving farmers the freedom to choose a calving strategy to best meet their economic goals. Thus, an accurate method to determine cattle birth seasonality from archaeological r...

Childhood lead exposure in the British Isles during the industrial revolution (2014)
Book Chapter

Zuckerman (Ed.), Modern environments and human health : revisiting the second epidemiological transition (279-300). WileyMan-made toxin exposure is one of the defining characteristics of the second epidemiological transition. Our analysis of previous data shows that lead levels in tooth enamel above 0.87 ppm are characteristic of exposure to anthropogenic lead. In Brit...

Journal of the North Atlantic, Special Volume 7, 54-70Identifying people of exotic origins with isotopes depends upon finding isotopic attributes that are inconsistent with the indigenous population. This task is seldom straightforward and may vary with physical geography, through time, and with cultura... Read More about Finding Vikings with Isotope Analysis: The View from Wet and Windy Islands.
Isotope analysis of incremental human dentine: towards higher temporal resolution (2014)
Journal Article
Beaumont, J., Gledhill, A., & Montgomery, J. (2014). Isotope analysis of incremental human dentine: towards higher temporal resolution. Bulletin of the International association for paleodontology, 8(2), 212-223Here we present a novel method which allows the measurement of the stable isotope ratios of carbon (δ13C) and nitrogen (δ15N) from much smaller samples of dentine than previously possible without affecting the quality parameters. The reconstruction o... Read More about Isotope analysis of incremental human dentine: towards higher temporal resolution.
