Isotopes, or how anthropologists can tell what you ate and where you came from (with special guest Tiffany Fracchia)

The Bone Club by Ashley C. Smith, Stephanie Hartley, Jenna MacRae

Episode notes

In this episode of The Bone Club, we sit down with Dr. Tiffany Fracchia of Vanderbuilt University to discuss the concept and uses of isotopic analyses in forensic anthropology and how they can be used for everything for understanding what someone's general diet was like and where they may have come from. We also discuss the forensic implications of these types of analyses.
