Development of Millet Agriculture and Its Integration With Animal Husbandry in Liaoxi, Evidenced by Stable Isotope Analysis From the Tuchengzi Site
This study reports carbon and nitrogen stable isotopic data of faunal remains from the Tuchengzi site during the Lower Xiajiadian (LXJD) Culture and the Eastern Zhou Dynasty. During the LXJD Culture, pigs and dogs exhibited a C4-dominated diet, indicating millet byproduct as fodder. Cattle also displayed C4-dominated diets, reflecting stall-feeding, while sheep/goats had a mixed C3–C4 diet, suggesting grazing management. This pattern continued into the Eastern Zhou Dynasty, during which horses also showed the influence of millet agriculture. These findings provide valuable insights into the agro-pastoral integration in the Liaoxi region, highlighting adaptive subsistence strategies in prehistoric Northeast China.
期刊介绍:
Archaeometry is an international research journal covering the application of the physical and biological sciences to archaeology, anthropology and art history. Topics covered include dating methods, artifact studies, mathematical methods, remote sensing techniques, conservation science, environmental reconstruction, biological anthropology and archaeological theory. Papers are expected to have a clear archaeological, anthropological or art historical context, be of the highest scientific standards, and to present data of international relevance.
The journal is published on behalf of the Research Laboratory for Archaeology and the History of Art, Oxford University, in association with Gesellschaft für Naturwissenschaftliche Archäologie, ARCHAEOMETRIE, the Society for Archaeological Sciences (SAS), and Associazione Italian di Archeometria.
