No / This paper introduces stable light isotope analysis as a method of investigating the
homogeneity and heterogeneity of communities inhabiting areas of the East Alpine region
during the Late Bronze Age and Early Iron Age. It will present a short review on the use
of carbon and nitrogen light isotope values, and discuss how they provide insight into
the diet and health of past populations. A pilot study of results obtained from the bone
collagen of 14 individuals, from 6 sites located in modern-day Slovenia and northern
Croatia, will also be presented. This small dataset provides an example of the values that
will be collected throughout the ENTRANS Project, and how they can be used as a tool
to investigate the lives of people in the past. / HERA joint research programme
