Abstract

This paper presents SrIsoMed, an open access and open source searchable database of published 87Sr/86Sr values from countries that have coastlines on the Mediterranean Sea. The Mediterranean has been characterized by pronounced human mobility at different regional scales, as well as extensive material cultural networks, making it a prime area for strontium isotopic analyses for palaeomobility and provenance studies. SrIsoMed follows the example of several recent initiatives that have compiled isotopic data in searchable web-based databases, and its interactive maps and search functionalities are anticipated to make it an important research tool. With this paper we wish not only to increase the visibility and subsequent use of this database, but also to invite scholars to contribute data and bring to our attention omissions or suggestions for further future improvement.
