AMINO ACID AND STABLE ISOTOPE ANALYSES OF SKELETONS FROM ST STEPHEN'S LANE AND BUTTERMARKET, IPSWICH, SUFFOLK
Author(s): N Beavan-Athfield
Samples of human bone from eighteen articulated skeletons were processed for amino acid and stable isotope analysis. All skeletons had been radiocarbon dated previously at the Queen's University, Belfast. The amino acid analyses and carbon-nitrogen ratios indicate that the collagen in most samples was moderately well preserved. Stable isotope values for the groups as a whole are consistent with a predominantly terrestrial diet.
