A Corded Ware Culture Burial with Flint Dagger from Aschheim (LKR. MUNCHEN). Absolute Dating, Strontium Isotope Analysis and Archaeological Comparisons

In 2008 an individual grave of the Corded Ware culture was discovered next to a small burial group of the Bell Beaker culture during archaeological investigations prior building activities. The grave goods and the AMS radiocarbon dating of the bones provide new information on the chronology of the South-Bavarian Corded Ware culture and especially on burials with flint daggers. The results of strontium isotope analyses and the comparison with further graves from southern Bavaria opens the discussion on socio-archaeological aspects on the one hand and the possible origin of the deceased from the Danube area on the other hand.
