Long 'on' the Tooth: Dental Evidence of Diet addresses human dental
macroscopic and microscopic wear, as well as dental disease, as
indicators of diet. The book focuses primarily on 350 pre-contact
humans from North America dating from approximately 5,500 to 600
years ago. These populations had subsistence strategies ranging
from terrestrial foraging to intensive maize agriculture. The study
makes intra- and intergroup comparisons to elucidate dietary
nuances that are largely beyond the reach of other means of dietary
reconstruction. Finally, the book discusses the importance of using
multiple dietary indicators in unison in order to provide
paleodietary insights.
