Whilst marine resources are one of the pillars of the Mediterranean diet, their mode of acquisition and subsequent consumption by medieval populations in southern France are still not well known. Throughout Europe, bioarchaeological techniques, however, are beginning to reveal hitherto unknown aspects of these practices both dating to the medieval period as well as other periods of history and prehistory. This study involved the stable isotope analysis of five marine and catadromous taxa from three medieval sites in Provence, France: "rue Frédéric Mistral" at Fos-sur-Mer, "le Château" at Hyères and "Couvent des Dominicaines - Parking/Collège Mignet" at Aix-en-Provence. In total, 127 specimens, including and Mugilidae were subjected to carbon and nitrogen stable isotope analysis. The study provides a crucial and unprecedented point of reference of the carbon and nitrogen isotopic variability of one of the main dietary resources in the Mediterranean world, fish.
尽管海洋资源是地中海饮食的支柱之一,但法国南部中世纪人口获取和随后消费海洋资源的方式仍不为人所知。然而,在整个欧洲,生物考古技术开始揭示这些可追溯到中世纪时期以及历史和史前其他时期的行为中迄今未知的方面。本研究对来自法国普罗旺斯三个中世纪遗址的五种海洋和溯河洄游类群进行了稳定同位素分析:滨海福斯的“弗雷德里克·米斯特拉尔街”、耶尔的“城堡”以及艾克斯普罗旺斯的“多米尼克会修道院 - 停车场/米涅学院”。总共127个样本,包括[此处原文缺失部分内容]和鲻科鱼类,接受了碳和氮稳定同位素分析。该研究为地中海地区主要饮食资源之一鱼类的碳和氮同位素变异性提供了关键且前所未有的参考点。
