🗣️ New paper! 🗣️ The mobility patterns of the population of Gallo-Roman Tienen (Belgium) are keeping you up at night? Wondering if there is more than mobility reflected in these 87Sr/86Sr results? This is very relatable, and conveniently, I have the right paper for you! It's accessible right there 👇

Seguro que se te ha pasado por la cabeza alguna vez si prefieres que te cremen o te entierren ¿a que sí? ¿Sabes que llevamos miles de años eligiendo entre las dos opciones? ¿Y que optar por una u otra tiene significados diferentes? Quédate en este #HiloTesis #UGR @crueuniversidades.bsky.social
