Is it possible to identify #Tobacco use from human remains?

Our colleague #SheridanStrang is currently investigating this question with five tooth samples from the #Napoleonic #battlefield of #DeutschWagram
The project is funded by the British Association for Biological #Anthropology and #Osteoarchaeology and takes place in cooperation with the #viennabiocenter of the @univienna and the research group #TobaccoAndHealth of the #UniversityOfLeicester
