Abstract

The author presents here the results of carbon (ẟ13C),oxygen (ẟ18O) and strontium (87Sr/86Sr) isotope analysisof human tooth enamel, which has been used to identifypotential migrants and shed light on the diet of the ancientpopulation of El-Zuma during the post-Meroitic/EarlyMakuria period (c. AD 350–600).
