The dramatic growth of dietary isotope studies in archaeological literature attests to the significant potential this technique has for shedding light on past societies. Human diet reflects complex, inter-linked factors such as status, cultural prefe...

Community diversity at Ban Lum Khao, Thailand: Isotopic evidence from the skeletons (2009)
Journal Article
Bentley, R., Cox, K., Tayles, N., Higham, C., Macpherson, C., Nowell, G., …Hayes, T. (2009). Community diversity at Ban Lum Khao, Thailand: Isotopic evidence from the skeletons. Asian Perspectives: The Journal of Archaeology for Asia and the Pacific, 48(1), 79-97. https://doi.org/10.1353/asi.0.0017

Isotopes of strontium, carbon, and oxygen were analyzed in human tooth enamel from the Bronze Age site of Ban Lum Khao (c. 1400 B.C.–500 B.C.) in Thailand. The strontium and oxygen isotopes, which generally reflect place of origin, delimit discrete g... Read More about Community diversity at Ban Lum Khao, Thailand: Isotopic evidence from the skeletons.

Journal Article
Bentley, R., Tayles, N., Higham, C., Macpherson, C., & Atkinson, T. (2007). Shifting gender relations at Khok Phanom Di, Thailand: Isotopic evidence from the skeletons. Current Anthropology, 48(2), 301-314. https://doi.org/10.1086/512987

The values for isotopes of strontium, carbon, and oxygen in human tooth enamel from the prehistoric site of Khok Phanom Di (ca. 2100–1500 BC) in Thailand shed light on human mobility and marital residence during a crucial period of subsistence change...
