Supplementary tables from a multi-disciplinary investigation of a sheep mass mortality assemblage in historical France. The dataset includes radiocarbon data, paleo-epidemiological data, sequencing statistics, D statistics, and pathogen lists. It was authored by Annelise Binois-Roman and last updated on 2026-05-21.
Use Cases
- Calibrating radiocarbon dating models based on provided radiocarbon data.
- Reconstructing historical disease outbreaks using paleo-epidemiological data.
- Comparing ancient and modern pathogen genomes based on the list of modern Capripox and Taenia genomes.
- Assessing sequencing quality and contamination using the provided sequencing statistics and D statistics.
Strengths
- Dataset is licensed under CC-BY-4.0, permitting broad reuse with attribution.
- Covers a specific historical time range (17th-19th century) for a focused investigation.
- Integrates multiple data types (radiocarbon, genomic, epidemiological) for a multi-disciplinary study.
Limitations
- Column-level documentation is absent; field semantics must be inferred after download.
- Row count and file formats are unknown, which may limit suitability assessment.
