A researcher in lab coat and gloves extracting samples for DNA and isotope analysis. The sampling is overseen by a second researcher.
SCAPES postdoctor @annapp90.bsky.social is currently sampling human remains to explore population development and Norway’s Neolithic transition. Did agriculture arrive with colonizers? Did groups cooperate or clash? Did they eat a primarily terrestrial or maritime diet? #Archaeology #aDNA #isotopes

En av grunnene til at jeg fortsatt er innom Facebook er at en del arkeologiske prosjekter er flinke til å formidle der. Heldigvis popper det opp noen her på Bluesky også, så da vil jeg bare anbefale folk å følge:

Nice day at the office - gathering water samples near key sites for our SCAPES project - one of our aims is to create a strontium isotope baseline map of Norway @scapes-bronzeage.bsky.social

Project start! SCAPES will investigate social complexity and population entanglements in Norway 2500-1000 BCE. The project is funded by the Norwegian Research Council and will run until October 2028.
