Figure 3: Stable isotope results from food crusts, Trave and Alster valley sites (squares, Bebensee; diamonds, Seedorf; triangles, Schlamersdorf; circles, Kayhude); filled symbols, samples that must be from early Neolithic Funnel-Beaker pottery, based on sherd typology or 14C age; empty symbols, samples from Ertebølle pottery (or undetermined). Labels indicate conventional 14C ages of food crusts (Stuiver and Polach 1977), which can incorporate large reservoir effects (expected conventional 14C ages for terrestrial samples: late Ertebølle c. 5700–5200 BP, Funnel-Beaker 5100–4300 BP).
