Fig. 2: δ13C values of C16:0 and C18:0 n-alkanoic acids obtained from Early Neolithic pottery from the Atlantic coast of Europe and the Western Baltic (n = 647) (Supplementary Data 2).
From: Latitudinal gradient in dairy production with the introduction of farming in Atlantic Europe
a Central-southern Portugal. b Northern Spain. c France and the Channel Islands. d Southern England. e Northern England, Ireland and Scotland. f Western Baltic. The 68% confidence ellipses are based on modern European authentic reference fats and oils (ruminant adipose fats, ruminant dairy fats, porcine adipose fats and marine oils) (Supplementary Table 2). Note that several of the vessels from the Western Baltic fall outside of the ellipses and as such a mixture of resources, including marine oils with ruminant adipose/dairy fats is envisaged.
