The Research

At the RU of the University of Rome Tor Vergata, the Anthropology group analyzed the skeletal remains of 52 individuals from Piazza d’Armi.

The morphological and morphometric analysis (view HERE) of the skeletal remains provided information on paleodemography, lifestyle, and possible pathologies.

The biomolecular analysis (view HERE)

• paleogenomics,
• metagenomics,
• stable isotopes: C and N from bone proteins to determine dietary patterns, Sr from tooth enamel for mobility revealed information on genetic ancestry, mobility patterns, health, and dietary habits.
