This thesis aims to analyze the Early Medieval burials of the cemetery of the church of Santa Giustina on the Rocca of Monselice. The bioanthropological study of the human skeletal remains made it possible to identify the main taphonomic processes that influenced the preservation of the remains and to determine the biological profile of the individuals, such as age at death, sex, stature and any pathological conditions. The research was further integrated with stable isotope analyses, aimed at reconstructing the mobility and diet of the individuals.
La presente tesi si propone di analizzare le sepolture altomedievali del cimitero annesso alla chiesa di Santa Giustina sulla Rocca di Monselice. Lo studio bioantropologico dei resti umani scheletrici ha consentito di individuare i principali processi tafonomici che hanno influenzato la conservazione dei reperti e di determinare il profilo biologico e stato di salute degli individui, quali età alla morte, sesso, statura ed eventuali patologie. L'indagine è stata ulteriormente integrata da analisi degli isotopi stabili, finalizzate alla ricostruzione della mobilità e della dieta degli individui.

Abstract
This thesis aims to analyze the Early Medieval burials of the cemetery of the church of Santa Giustina on the Rocca of Monselice. The bioanthropological study of the human skeletal remains made it possible to identify the main taphonomic processes that influenced the preservation of the remains and to determine the biological profile of the individuals, such as age at death, sex, stature and any pathological conditions. The research was further integrated with stable isotope analyses, aimed at reconstructing the mobility and diet of the individuals.| File | Dimensione | Formato | |
