Database of molecular preservation parameters

As a key whole project interim scientific deliverable, the ESRs will create a database of molecular preservation parameters (e.g. lipid yields, compound classes present) by artefact type, burial context and geolocation. This is will be key building block enabling researchers, both within the project and external to it, to identify suitable archaeolgical contexts for molecular analysis. The database will be created in Month 18 and deposited with the Archaeology Data Service on completion of the project Month 48.
