Strontium isoscape of sub-Saharan Africa allows tracing origins of victims of the transatlantic slave trade by Wang, X, Bocksberger, G, Arandjelovic, M, Agbor, A, Angedakin, S, Aubert, F, Ayimisin, EA, Bailey, E, Barubiyo, D, Bessone, M, Bobe, R, Bonnet, M, Boucher, R, Brazzola, G, Brewer, S, Lee, KC, Carvalho, S, Chancellor, R, Cipoletta, C, Cohen, H, Copeland, SR, Corogenes, K, Costa, AM, Coupland, C, Neil, E

“…Strontium isotope (87Sr/86Sr) analysis with reference to strontium isotope landscapes (Sr isoscapes) allows reconstructing mobility and migration in archaeology, ecology, and forensics. However, despite the vast potential of research involving 87Sr/86Sr analysis particularly in Africa, Sr isoscapes remain unavailable for the largest parts of the continent. …”
