Isotopic dataset (δ¹³C, δ¹⁵N, δ¹⁸O) from human bone and tooth samples at four Greek archaeological sites (400–700 CE)
Salesse, Kévin
This dataset complements the Greek dataset initiated by Salesse (2018; DOI: 10.48530/isoarch.2018.001). It compiles isotopic data from four archaeological sites in Greece: Nemea, Eleutherna, Messene, and Sourtara, dated between 400 and 700 CE. Based on four bibliographic sources, it includes 135 hum...

Multi-isotope insights into diets, mobility, and environments across millennia in Greece and beyond
Salesse, Kévin
This dataset extends the original IsoArcH core collection from the Roman world to the wider Greco-Roman sphere and lays the groundwork for a future dataset focusing specifically on Greece across all historical periods. It integrates isotopic data from 92 archaeological sites, predominantly located ...

Comprehensive multi-isotope dataset (δ¹³C, δ¹⁵N, δ¹⁸O, ⁸⁷Sr/⁸⁶Sr, ¹⁴C) from 97 sites in Europe, Western Asia, and Africa (9000 BCE–1500 CE) for investigating ancient diets and mobility patterns
Salesse, Kévin
This dataset compiles multi-isotope data from 97 archaeological sites located across Europe, Western Asia, and Africa, dated between 9000 BCE and 1500 CE, based on 44 bibliographic sources. It includes 2,302 materials and 2,782 samples representing humans, animals, plants, and a few modern environme...

Stable isotope (δ¹³C, δ¹⁵N) and radiocarbon data from human and faunal remains at Herculaneum (AD 79)
Salesse, Kévin
This dataset reports stable carbon (δ¹³C) and nitrogen (δ¹⁵N) isotope values and radiocarbon dates from bone collagen of nine humans and one sheep who died during the AD 79 Vesuvius eruption at Herculaneum. The data were used to investigate marine food consumption and its impact on radiocarbon datin...

Isotopic data from human remains at Metaponto (7th–2nd c. BCE, Southern Italy)
Salesse, Kévin
This dataset documents the isotopic variability of δ¹³C and δ¹⁵N values measured on human bone collagen from individuals associated with the site of Metaponto, a Greek colonial settlement in Southern Italy. It focuses on two archaeological areas, Crucinia and Pantanello, dated to the 7th to 2nd cent...
