Des ensembles funéraires particuliers correspondant aux dépôts simultanés de plusieurs centaines de défunts ont été découverts en 2003 dans le secteur central de la catacombe des Saints-Pierre-et-Marcellin à Rome (Ier-IIIe s. ap. J.-C.). Les études archéo-anthropologiques ont démontré que ces individus étaient décédés lors de crises de mortalité successives. Les sujets semblent se caractériser par un haut rang social (présence de matériaux onéreux tels que la soie, l’or et l’ambre) et par le recours à des pratiques funéraires singulières (employant des résines, du tissu et du plâtre). Afin d’appréhender le mode de vie des individus inhumés dans ces sépultures plurielles exceptionnelles, une étude multi-élémentaire (δ13C, δ15N et δ18O) a été réalisée sur un échantillon de 152 sujets provenant de 6 salles localisées au cœur de la catacombe dans l’objectif de reconstituer les pratiques alimentaires et d’analyser la mobilité résidentielle de ces individus. Cette approche permet d’apport...

The catacomb of Saints Peter and Marcellinus located in the south-east of Rome approximately contains 25 000 graves dated from the 3rd to the 5th century AD. Seven newly discovered rooms having an unusual organization in the heart of the catacomb were investigated in 2003. Excavations of these rooms revealed a mass grave, where 3000 corpses were laid together. These individuals were stacked in rows apparently following a common fatal incident. Presumably, this epidemic crisis occurred between the 1st and the 3rd century AD. The specific funerary treatment (textile wrapping and plaster) recalls mummification and might be related to exogenous practices, possibly connected to Early Christians. Moreover, the presence of rare and expensive materials (e.g., Baltic amber, resins and gold threads) may indicate a high social status. Stable isotope analyses (carbon, nitrogen and oxygen) of bone collagen, bone apatite and tooth hydroxyapatite were carried out on 111 individuals to obtain furth...
