Shown are the average (± standard deviation) number of raster cells (20 km2 blocks) assigned as the probable area of origin for each individual in the validation sample set using δ2Hf data alone and with Bayesian methodology using priors derived from analysis of microsatellite data for analysis of δ2Hf data.
