- •
Individuals were found to pre-date the settlement of Iceland in AD 871 ± 2.
- •
Stable isotopes suggest the presence of non-terrestrial carbon is influencing 14C ages.
- •
δ13C, δ15N and δ34S values were incorporated in FRUITS to more accurately determine diet.
- •
14C ages were corrected for both freshwater and marine reservoir effects.
- •
The chronology of the Viking Age cemetery was more accurately refined by Bayesian modelling.
