Human skeletal remains from archaeological settings are studied by neutron vibrational spectroscopy as an innovative way of analysing these kind of samples, particularly aiming at the assessment of heat-induced alterations. This work builds on the success of previous experiments at ISIS on human bones burned under controlled conditions, which allowed us to probe burning-elicited changes through specific spectral biomarkers, and constitute the first studies on human skeletal remains by neutron techniques [1]. The INS results obtained from the archaeological specimens (coupled to FTIR and Raman data) are expected to yield relevant bioarchaeological information, by correlating the spectroscopically detected structural changes due to burning to the temperature and duration of the burning event as well as to bone´s macroscopic characteristics (e.g. dimensions and colour).
