Intitulé de la thèse : Bioarcheology of the medieval population of Central Europe : Relationships among health, social context and nutrition

My doctoral research is looking at the dietary behavior and health status of a population that lived in the context of rapid change, including the development of the economic and political structures of states, the adoption of Christianity as well as the subsequent disruption of social structure and the recovery of society using a joint analysis of multi-isotopic elements and dental and osteological macroscopic markers.

Key words : diet, stable isotopes, breastfeeding, health status, Middle Ages, Great Moravia, socio-economic stratification

Encadrants : Estelle Herrscher (CR, CNRS, UMR 7269), Petr Velemínský (Professor, National Museum in Prague)
