This volume provides a state-of-the-art presentation and discussion
of procedures, especially what works and what doesn't - on isotopic
proveniencing, learned over the last 30 years. The volume focuses
on application, not method, to emphasize to the reader the wide
range of questions that can be addressed using isotopic
proveniencing. Topics covered include samples, baselines,
isoscapes, and place of origin. Isotopic proveniencing has become
almost standard procedure in the analysis of archaeological burials
as a means of distinguishing locals from foreigners. The
combination of isotopic proveniencing and DNA has moved
archaeological interest in migration and mobility to the fore, but
there is very little synthetic work published for either
technology.The field has evolved and new procedures and guidelines
have emerged that have not been widely heard and this volume seeks
to rectify this. The contributors have been selected from among the
leaders in the field, those with active research and hands-on
experience with the technology. This volume is of relevance to
archaeologists.
