We will be presenting on our project this Sunday during Heritage Week. Join us in Portlaoise and in Kilcullen to find out about isotopes, zooarch and the Iron Age of the region!https://t.co/KKl2a3vF9E https://t.co/KKl2a3vF9E

Ah, Ireland, we have some collagen…” The fruits of our labours here in Scotland at @SUERC1 with @DrDerekHamilton are on full display in the freeze-drier!!! We can’t wait to start measuring on the mass spec @CACSSS1 #COALESCE #LoveIrishResearch

[New Pastures @NewPasturesUCC]

Learning a ’new’ methodology for collagen extraction with @DrDerekHamilton at @SUERC1 closer to the original Longin method using a whole bone fragment for demineralization. Can’t wait to get through the pretreatment and onto the mass spec for results! @CACSSS1 #loveirishresearch

[New Pastures @NewPasturesUCC]

We’ve been undertaking collagen extraction with @DrDerekHamilton at @SUERC1 for a few weeks. The importance of cleanliness in the lab cannot be overstated if you want to get great samples for isotope analysis. Animal mobility in the Irish Iron Age! @CACSSS1 #loveirishresearch

Selecting samples @IrishAntiquitiesDivi @NMIreland for isotope and aDNA analysis. The sex of this calf may help us understand if Iron Age cattle management was focused on dairy or meat production @CACSSS1 @IrishResearch @PamJCrabtree @brad_dan @DrDerekHamilton #loveirishresearch

Before studying more Iron Age animal bones we're checking out excavation archives @NationalMons and site pics! @uccarchaeology @CACSSS1 @IronAgeIrl #loveirishresearch

Excited to see the talks the first day at the #Beyondthebaseline SIZWG conference in Berlin! @IronAgeIrl @DrDerekHamilton

[New Pastures @NewPasturesUCC]

First talk yesterday @uccarchaeology @CACSSS on what we want to learn from Iron Age bones like this through zooarchaeology, isotopes and aDNA. Thanks to @IrishResearch @NationalMons.Thanks to all so far! @DrDerekHamilton @PamJCrabtree @KerriCleary @brad_dan #LoveIrishResearch

[New Pastures @NewPasturesUCC]

Today the first Iron Age animal bones excavated and studied by @rubiconheritage project arrived @uccarchaeology ! :D
