The potential for identifying C4 crop consumption is explored alongside regional and local patterning in diet by sex and socioeconomic status. Materials and Methods: Humans (n=216) and animals (n=168) were analysed from sites in London and northern England for both carbon and nitrogen isotopes of bone collagen (
