Dietary habits in medieval and early modern Estonia: evidence from stable isotope analysis
Ü Aguraiuja-Lätti,
M Malve
Abstract:New stable carbon and nitrogen isotopic analyses from medieval and early modern sites across Estonia demonstrate systematic differences in the dietary habits of people from various locations and social groups. These results are compared with previously published isotopic data from similar contexts to identify the type and origin of dietary items, specifically in terms of aquatic resource consumption. Distinction between protein sources is, however, complicated by the high degree of isotopic variation among aqu… Show more
