We would argue that it is the task of those aiming to reconstruct ancient diet as well as those aiming to imderstand how isotopic fractionation signatures are produced, to devise experiments and analyze the results in order to... [Pg.232]

The isotopes of many elements (see Textbox 12) provide important tools for obtaining information on many archaeological investigations their use may enable researchers, for example, to determine the provenance (see Textbox 30) or the age of materials (see Textboxes 15 and 16), calculating ancient temperatures (see Textbox 47), or elucidating the nature of the ancient diets of human beings as well as of animals (see Textbox 59). [Pg.64]

Strontium-87 Study of ancient diets Provenance studies... [Pg.66]

The isotopic composition of carbon in the proteins, which are one of the main components of animal tissues, reflects the nature of the food resources in the diet of the animals. Determining the relative abundance of the stable isotopes of carbon in the proteins of bones or hair, for example, can facilitate understanding of the effects that different types of plants or animal food resources had on ancient diets (Katzenberg 2000 Burton 1996). [Pg.415]
