Adaptive Dietary Response to Long-Term Drought: Diachronic Stable Isotope Evidence from the Central Sierra Nevada, California (2017)
DOCUMENT Citation Only Bryna Hull. Jemer Eerkens. Reba Fuller.

This study examines human dietary responses to the Medieval Climatic Anomaly (MCA), an extended period of warmer and drier environmental conditions from AD 900-1300, in the Central Sierra Nevada Mountains of California. Stable isotope and radiocarbon analyses of human remains attributable to the Tuolumne Me-Wuk reveal individual-level dietary behaviors. Results show a region-specific "Central Sierran" pattern of resource use in the form of a distinctive isotopic signature relative to other areas...

DOCUMENT Citation Only Samantha A. Streuli. Margaret J. Schoeninger. Andrew D. Somerville.

The Formative period site of Chalcatzingo in Morelos, Mexico (1150-450 BCE) represents a socially complex society and contains the only Olmec-style monumental architecture in the region. Evidence for social stratification at Chalcatzingo includes differences in burial location and unequal distribution of rare artifacts. Significant debate surrounds the potential Olmec cultural influence on status formation and social stratification throughout Formative period Mesoamerica. Some scholars...

Assessing Dietary Variability at Gillman Mound, South Australia using Stable Carbon and Nitrogen Isotopes (2015)
DOCUMENT Citation Only Caitlin Smith.

The production, distribution, and consumption of food are central to the human experience. What we eat and how we prepare, consume, and share our victuals permeates every society, past and present. Therefore, it is crucial that our study of past human societies include attention to the role of foods and diet in our observations and interpretations of archaeological and biological data. Recent research in South Australia has highlighted the need for further exploration into the social structure...

DOCUMENT Citation Only Caroline Borges. Diane Wallman. Jonathan Bethard. Claudia Cunha. Ana Lucia do Nascimento Oliveira. Suely Cristina Albuquerque de Luna.

This is an abstract from the session entitled "Port of Call: Archaeologies of Labor and Movement through Ports", at the 2023 annual meeting of the Society for Historical Archaeology. This research focuses on the city of Recife, Pernambuco, Northeast Brazil, from the 16th to the 18th centuries. Recently archaeological excavations inside the Port of Recife revealed that the occupation of the area was first established as a fortress in the 16th century. Later, the area became one of the main...

Bioarchaeology, Barbados, Eastern Caribbean: Isotopic Analyses of Teeth and Bone from Human Remains (2015)
DOCUMENT Citation Only Tiffany Hansen. Steve Hackenberger.

Bioarchaeological studies have grown in sophistication and are now helping test assumptions about island garden agriculture (palm, cassava and/or maize) and the relative contributions of marine proteins. Bone and teeth samples from five sites on Barbados were processed by Center for Applied Isotopic Studies, University of Georgia and data are reported for δ13Cco, δ13Cca, δ15Nco, and δ18Oap. Stable isotope ratios, adjusted ratios, and apatite-collagen spacing correspond with results from...

Bought or Caught? Foodways Choices at 18AP39 in Annapolis, Maryland (2022)
DOCUMENT Citation Only Heather K Crowl. Maire-Lorraine Pipes. Alexandra Crowder. Scott Seibel.

This is a poster submission presented at the 2022 annual meeting of the Society for Historical Archaeology. In 2021, AECOM conducted excavations near the historic Annapolis waterfront at a site occupied since the late 1700s. The shallow water table at the site resulted in a high level of preservation of organic materials, including ethnobotanical and faunal remains. As with any domestic occupation, there are important questions that can be posed, but not always answered, about what the...


A Burial in the Bay: Evidence for Environment and Diet 7500 Years Ago (2015)
DOCUMENT Citation Only R. Varney. Linda Scott Cummings. Peter Kovácik. Barbara Winsborough.

Microscopic and macroscopic evaluation of samples associated with a 7570 CAL BP burial recovered on the west side of San Francisco Bay provides multiple proxy records representing the environment at the time this person was interred and possibly foods consumed by this individual. The pollen and macrofloral records indicate evidence of coastal or littoral plants, one of which, soaproot, also contributed abundantly to the macrofloral record. A wide variety of trees grew in the bay area, as did...


Can epigenetic mechanisms illuminate dietary ancestry in populations? (2015)
DOCUMENT Citation Only M. J. Mosher.

Illuminating genetic and environmental factors underlying complex traits is a daunting task. Dietary nutrients provide continuous and evolving influence on gene expression, thus affecting individual growth and development and adaptive capacities over the life course. Metabolic traits represent the culmination of many gene-by-nutrient interactions. Genes set parameters for susceptibility to environmental factors, variation in both internal and external environmental dynamics mediating the...

Changing Diets: Using Stable Isotopic Micro-sampling Approaches to Explore Dietary Changes throughout Life (2023)
DOCUMENT Citation Only Hannah Koon. Mandi Curtis.

This is an abstract from the "SAA 2023: Individual Abstracts" session, at the 88th annual meeting of the Society for American Archaeology. Isotope analysis of bulk carbon and nitrogen from tooth dentine and bone collagen are now commonly used in studies of dietary reconstruction from past populations. Teeth do not remodel once formed, so bulk dentine values provide an “average” dietary signal from the few years of childhood when the tooth was formed. Bones, on the other hand, continue to...
