A exceptional Early Bronze Age grave with tin beads from Bavaria

该项目聚焦于巴伐利亚州奥格斯堡附近Schwabmünchen的丰富的早期青铜时代女性墓葬(Reinecke之后的BA A1)，这是迄今为止唯一的发现背景。在一个丰富的珠宝设备旁边，这名女性被装饰着成堆的小锡珠，缝在一件件装饰品上。由于锡制品在青铜时代，特别是欧洲青铜时代早期极为罕见，因此应分析施瓦布明辰珠子以及巴伐利亚布克希姆另一个当代墓穴中的锡同位素。由于锡不存在于中欧南部，将对人类骨骼材料(锶86-锶，87-锶)进行额外的稳定同位素分析，以辨别个人的本地或非本地来源。

The project focusses on a rich Early Bronze Age female burial (BA A1 after Reinecke) from Schwabmünchen near Augsburg in Bavaria, which represents a so far unique find context. Next to a rich jewelry equipment the female individual was adorned with tousands of tiny tin beads, sewn on pieces of garnment.. Since tin artefacts are extremely rare in Bronze Age, especially Early Bronze Age Europe the tin-isotopes of the beads from Schwabmünchen as well as from another contemporary grave from Buxheim in Bavaria shall be analysed.Since tin does not occur in southern Central Europe, additional stable isotope-analyses of the human bone material (Strontium 86-Sr, 87-Sr) will be made in order to discern a local or non-local origin of the individuals.
