Patterns of funerary variability, diet, and developmental stress in a Celtic population from NE Italy (3rd-1st c BC)

Abstract: Little is known about the types of social organization characterizing the pre-Roman Celtic populations of Italy. Here, we explore the funerary variability characterizing the late Iron Age site of Seminario Vescovile (SV: Verona, Italy, 3 rd -1 st c. BC), and test its possible correlation to diet and relative exposure to developmental stressors. Patterns on funerary treatment (N = 125), δ 13 C and δ 15 … Show more

“…According to this hypothesis, Via Carducci 42 would have been a funerary area reserved for individuals of relatively higher social standing (i.e., warriors) (Cavalieri Manasse & Salzani, pers . communication ; Laffranchi et al, 2019). Since the analysis of the material culture from SV and Via Carducci is still in progress, however, the above interpretation needs to be considered exploratory for the moment.…”

“…Bioarchaeological and paleopathological studies on the Celtic populations of Italy have mainly focused on the Boii Gauls, a population occupying the modern Emilia Romagna region of Northern Italy (Brasili, 1992, 2008; Brasili & Belcastro, 2003; Brasili, Mariotti, Neretti, & Facchini, 2000; Mariotti, Dutour, Belcastro, Facchini, & Brasili, 2005; Sorrentino et al, 2018). A series of recent studies has, however, expanded the actual knowledge of the lifestyle of the pre‐Roman populations in Italy by investigating a relatively little known group, the Cenomani Gauls, who inhabited the modern Veneto and Lombardy regions during the last centuries BC (Laffranchi, 2015; Laffranchi, Cavalieri Manasse, Salzani, & Milella, 2019; Laffranchi, Delgado Huertas, Jiménez Brobeil, Granados Torres, & Riquelme Cantal, 2016; Laffranchi, Jiménez Brobeil, Delgado Huertas, Granados Torres, & Miranda, 2018; Laffranchi, Martín Flórez, Jiménez Brobeil, & Castellani, 2015). According to Roman sources (e.g., Livius, Ab Urbe Condita , V, 35.1), the Cenomani arrived in Northern Italy (Verona, Brescia and surrounding areas) under the command of Etitovius, and allied with the Romans during the conflicts of the latter against the local populations of the Italian peninsula during the third–second century BC.…”
