- •
Bones (3 types) of 2 periods and buried in 2 soil environments were analysed by XRF.
- •
Chemical alteration is the main diagenetic process underwent by bone.
- •
Thoracic bones were more affected than long or cranial ones, especially in the acidic soil.
- •
Metal sorption and fine particles attachment were identified as secondary processes.
- •
Lead was probably incorporated pre-mortem, showing higher contents in Roman skeletons.
