@elliestam.bsky.social talked about how seasonality affects the cremation environment ❄️🌸☀️🍁, and what happens when bone reaches extremely high temperatures 🌡️🔥🦴

The dating of Fouches to the Early Roman period could potentially explain that Roman cremation expertise was not immediately widespread but rather transferred gradually to the edges of the Roman Empire.

The evidence from Fouches suggests a gradual transition from the Metal Ages to Roman cremation practices.

Finally, the Gallo-Roman cemetery of Fouches is particularly interesting, as it dates to the Early Roman period and presents similarities in ventilation conditions with the cemeteries from the Metal Ages instead of the other Gallo-Roman cemeteries.

Differences were also observed in cremation conditions between the Metal Ages and the Gallo-Roman cremations from Belgium, with Roman cremations presenting better oxygen availability during combustion.

However, high variability in δ13C and δ18O values indicates differences in fuel selection and environmental factors.

The results suggest similar pyre structure, size, temperature, and body positioning across Gallo-Roman cremations.

This study assesses cremation conditions in the Roman period using a multi-proxy analysis (FTIR-ATR and carbon and oxygen isotope analysis) on 332 burned bones from five Belgian Gallo-Roman cemeteries.

And a starter pack devoted to Isotope Experts in Archaeology and Ecology
Hey, I'm one of those! So be sure to check it out because isotopes are really revolutionizing our understanding of archaeology and ecology in many different ways

There's a related starter pack from @sntipper.bsky.social focusing on bioarchaeologists
Do check it out for a wide variety of insights into studying archaeological skeletal material and its context in an interdisciplinary study of ancient humans
and be sure to follow Sam!

And another great starter pack from @vcampanacho.bsky.social is this great list of biological anthropologists
From ancient funerary ritual to human evolution to, more broadly, what can ancient skeletal remains tell us about our ancestors?
