Limiting the impact of destructive analytical techniques through sequential microspatial sampling of the enamel from single teeth

In this case, enamel from the teeth of 27 individuals who lived during the early medieval period (AD 1170-1198) in Bergen, Norway, was subjected to histological, trace element (LA-ICP-MS), diagenetic (FTIR), and isotopic analyses (δ18O and δ13C, via micromill/multiprep/IRMS).
