Abstract

The dataset includes 87Sr/86Sr and [Sr] data for 149 human samples from the Gallo-Roman site of Tienen (Belgium, 1st-4th c.). One diaphysis was selected per deposit from the Grijpenveld cemetery (main and small), and two diaphyses and one rib were sampled from the Avendoren tumulus (end 2nd c.). This dataset adds to the comprehension of mobility patterns in Roman Belgium, but also to the diet and land-use patterns of the community.
