“…In a previous study this was tentatively suggested to indicate a possible prior migration event in adolescence, perhaps within Africa. 13 The strontium concentrations in the dentine sample increased between 9% in the M2 (27) to 112% in the M1 ( 26) compared to the enamel samples from the same dental element. Since the Sr concentrations in dentine and enamel are similar during life (see Supporting Information -Data S1), the increase in Sr concentrations is considered to reflect partial incorporation of diagenetic Sr. For the first and second molars, dentine samples possess higher Sr concentrations and lower 87 Sr/ 86 Sr that are intermediate between the corresponding enamel and the median of the local bioavailable 87 Sr/ 86 Sr.…”

“…The strontium isotope composition of the geological region she spent her childhood in differs significantly from that of Saba. The three enamel samples (M1, M2, M3) exhibit high strontium isotope ratios, ranging between 0.7105 and 0.7112 13 . These ratios are extremely elevated compared to the bioavailable 87 Sr/ 86 Sr for both the island of Saba ( ca 0.7065–0.7090, Figure 1 36 ) and the Antilles more broadly ( ca 0.7055–0.7093 37–39 ).…”
