Implication

Stable isotope analysis reveals dietary shifts in socioeconomic and religious groups in historical Vilnius, indicating varying food access.

Key Points

  • A significant increase in nitrogen values suggests a shift toward higher-trophic-level protein foods over time.
  • Statistical analyses, including one-way ANOVA, were used to assess dietary differences among diverse groups.
  • Distinct isotopic signatures indicate that dietary choices were influenced by religious affiliations and fasting traditions.
  • Findings highlight the impact of socioeconomic status on diet, with higher-status individuals consuming more protein-rich foods.
