摘要

古代饮食习惯的研究和重建已成为考古研究中一个非常重要的课题。大多数对希腊遗址饮食的化学分析研究仅限于史前时期,很少有对古典时期的研究。本文代表了一项稳定同位素分析的试点研究,该研究从锡拉丘兹(西西里岛)的斯卡拉·格雷卡(Scala Greca)古代墓地中选出的15个人进行了研究,该墓地于2010-2011年发现。根据丧葬组合和某些特征,如形状、尺寸、覆盖系统和建筑特征,对15座坟墓的诊断样本进行了初步的区分,以表面财富为基础,以测试饮食可能的变化。分别对代表饲粮蛋白质的骨胶原蛋白和代表全日粮的骨磷灰石进行碳、氮同位素分析。高度负的胶原碳同位素值表明饮食中几乎没有海鲜,氮同位素适中值也支持这一点,这与陆生食物一致,并不表明鱼类具有更高的营养水平。

Stable isotope analysis of the dietary habits of a Greek community in Archaic Syracuse (Sicily): a pilot study
ABSTRACT The study and reconstruction of ancient dietary habits has become a very significant topic in archaeological research. Most chemical analysis studies for diet at Greek sites are limited to prehistory, with very few examples of studies for the Classical period. This paper represents a pilot study of stable isotope analysis carried out on a group of 15 individuals selected among the population interred in the Archaic necropolis of Scala Greca at Syracuse (Sicily), a cemetery discovered in 2010-2011. Based on the funerary assemblages and certain features such as shape, dimensions, coverage system and architectural features, a preliminary distinction has been made based on apparent wealth on a diagnostic sample of 15 tombs to test possible variations in diet. Carbon and nitrogen isotope analyses were conducted on bone collagen, which represents dietary protein, and bone apatite, which represents the whole diet. The highly negative collagen carbon isotope values indicate little if any seafood in the diet, and this is supported by the nitrogen isotope modest values, which are consistent with terrestrial foods and do not suggest higher trophic level fish.
