Article Synopsis
- The study examines the Yuzhniy Oleniy Ostrov burial site, focusing on group dynamics and regional interactions of the Mesolithic population in Northern Europe.
- Radiogenic strontium isotope analysis revealed that most individuals likely lived semi-permanently near Lake Onega, with only two showing evidence of having spent time outside the area.
- The findings suggest stable residential patterns for Late Mesolithic foragers while also highlighting connections to broader communication networks, indicating some long-distance interactions.
More than 4300 Eurasian elk () incisors, most of them pendants, were found in 84 burials in the Late Mesolithic cemetery of Yuzhniy Oleniy Ostrov, Northwest Russia. We analysed the manufacture techniques of elk teeth (4014), in the collection of the Peter the Great Museum of Anthropology and Ethnography, St Petersburg. A striking observation is that the manufacture of these pendants is similar in all burials.
