Investigating population movement by stable isotope analysis: a report from Britain

Paul Budd; Andrew R. Millard; Carolyn Chenery; Sam Lucy; Charlotte Roberts

Stable isotopes present in local ground water get into peoples teeth before they are 12 years old, and act as a signature to the area where they grew up (and drank the water). In a review of recent work in Britain the authors show the huge potential of this method for detecting population movement – and thus ultimately for investigating questions of migration, exogamy and slavery.

Abstract This paper reports on the excavation of a small, but high-status, later seventh-century Anglo-Saxon cemetery in Ely. Of fifteen graves, two were particularly well furnished, one of which was buried with a gold and silver necklace that included a cross pendant, as well as two complete glass palm cups and a composite comb, placed within a wooden padlocked casket. The paper reports on the skeletal and artefactual material (including isotopic analysis of the burials), and seeks to set the site in its wider social and historical context, arguing that this cemetery may well have been associated with the first monastery in Ely, founded by Etheldreda in ad 673. Résumé Cette communication présente un rapport sur les fouilles effectuées à Ely dans un cimetière anglo-saxon, petit mais aristocratique, datant de la fin du septième siècle. Deux des quinze sépultures étaient particulièrement bien nanties, et l’un des morts avait été enterré avec un collier d’or et d’argent comportant une croix pendentif, ainsi que deux coupes de paume en verre entières et un peigne composé à l’intérieur d’un coffret en bois muni d’un cadenas. Cette communication présente un rapport sur le matériel osseux et les objets façonnés (y compris une analyse isotopique des sépultures) et s’efforce de situer le site dans son contexte social et historique plus large. Elle soutient que ce cimetière aurait bien pu être associé au premier monastère d’Ely, fondé par Etheldreda en l’an 673. Zusammenfassung Diese Abhandlung berichtet von einer Ausgrabung in einem kleinen, aber hochrangigen angelsächsischen Friedhofs in Ely. Von den fünfzehn Gräbern waren zwei besonders gut ausgestattet, und einer der Verstorbenen wurde mit einer goldenen und silbernen Kette mit Kreuzanhänger bestattet, sowie zwei kompletten Glasbechern und einem Kamm, der sich in einer mit Vorhängeschloß versehenen hölzernen Schatulle befand. Es wird über die Skelette und Artefake berichtet (inklusive der Analyse von Isotopen der Bestattungen), und versucht den Ort in seinen sozialen und historischen Zusammenhang einzuordnen. Es wird argumentiert, daß dieser Friedhof mit dem ersten Kloster in Ely in Verbindung gebracht werden kann, daß ad 673 von Etheldreda gegründet wurde.

explanations in the following chapters (the latter titled simply ‘Story’, ‘More’, ‘Details’ and, finally, ‘Apologia’). Many readers will join the reviewer in appreciating the merits of this kind of framework in providing a clear pathway through the often shifting nature of hypertext publications. The quality of the writing should also be mentioned—lucid, economical and sometimes even ‘catchy’—in no way does it invoke the kind of tedium that so often disfigures lengthy and detailed scientific publications.

Roman Iron Age

Sam Lucy

The Roman Iron Age experienced a fairly warm and dry climate, culminating in major marine transgressions in the later phases. Around 1550 b.p., there was a sudden climatic shift to wetter summers and colder winters.
