Abstract

Our project concerns the study of neolithic societies across the Swiss Alps using an interdisciplinary approach by combining isotope geochemistry, dental nonmetrics, aDNA analysis and palaeopathology to understand the evolution of diets, subsistence practices and mobility of these human groups. We present here some of the results on stable isotopes combined with new 14C analysis on the necropolis of Barmaz (Valais). Associated with the previous researches, our data allow us to offer new hypotheses concerning the events and links that united certain individuals
