Strontium isotope extraction from wool, leaching and preparation method (2019-2020) carried out at Brown University
Methodology for extracting strontium (Sr) isotopes from wool used to trace the movement of cloth and the trade in cloth across the North Atlantic. This methodology presented here is based on work by Karen M. Frei. These are the results from students at Brown, replicating Frei's method for leach...

Over the course of 1000 years, trade linking the Norse North Atlantic colonies waxed and waned.
