Mobility and community at Mesolithic Lake Onega, Karelia, north-west Russia: insights from strontium isotope analysis by Eckelmann, R, Arppe, L, Tarasov, A, Pospieszny, Ł, Ackerman, L, Heyd, V, Gerasimov, D, Moiseyev, V, Fairbanks, V, Hyland, C, Mannermaa, K

“…However, materials seem to have travelled towards Lake Onega even over great distances and the presence of the two outlier individuals suggests these exchanges also involved long-distance travel of people. Our results align with an increasing number of studies that suggest a high degree of residential stability for Late Mesolithic foraging groups relying primarily on aquatic resources, yet simultaneously places the Lake Onega community within a wider Mesolithic communication network.…”
