The 12 contributions in this volume arose from a September 1994 advanced seminar held in Banff that presented advances in studying past diet through bone chemistry. Most of the authors apply various principles of stable isotope and trace element analyses to questions of reconstructing past diet and subsistence. The papers reflect the increasing use of bone and tooth carbonate as a source of stable carbon isotopes, an emphasis on ecological considerations as they relate to diet reconstruction, and attempts to model the course of ingested nutrients and their resulting chemical signatures. Topics include a case study from 19th century upper Canada, diet and animal husbandry of the preclassic Maya in Belize, and controlled diet and climate experiments on nitrogen isotope ratios of rats.
