WEaning Age FiNder (WEAN): a tool for estimating weaning age from stable isotope ratios of dentinal collagen

Abstract: Nitrogen stable isotope ratios (δ15N) of incremental dentine collagen have been extensively used for the study of breastfeeding and weaning practices in ancient populations. The shifts in δ15N values reveal the duration of exclusive breastfeeding, the onset and completion of weaning. Despite the significant progress in sampling precision protocols, the weaning estimation is still performed by visual observation of δ15N individual profiles, a time-consuming, labor-intensive, and error-prone task.
