摘要: This preliminary study investigates an alternative method to exploring and understanding the presence of maize (Zea mays ssp. mays) in prehistoric human settlement areas using stable isotope ratios from dog (Canis familiaris) bone as a surrogate bone. Using this methodology, pilot aims begin provide insight into prominence within subsistence economies 2 populations coastal New Jersey—an area where some researchers argue people relied little upon tropical domesticate. The third sample included is population Pennsylvania cultivation consumption have been evidenced by macrobotanical remains analyses on Data derived project offers potential new distribution regions Middle Atlantic, well enhance our diversity applications for anal...
