Note that Tr = Trench; T = tomba/grave number; P = pozzo/pit number, ND = sex not determinable. Data on osteological age and sex from the Grotta Scaloria samples obtained from [90]; for the Passo di Corvo samples obtained from [70]; for the Masseria Candelaro and Titolo samples, determined by authors, although also see [69] for previous analysis of Masseria Candelaro skeletal remains. Radiocarbon dates obtained from [60–62, 91, 92], date from PDC001 first published here.
