摘要
近几十年来,古代人群的食谱研究已经成为现代科技考古学的一个重要组成部分,也是当前国际科技考古学研究领域的一项前沿性课题。人类骨骼的化学元素分析为重建古代居民的食谱提供了大量信息。本文采用电感耦合等离子发射光谱仪(ICP-AES),对新疆和静县察吾呼沟口四号墓地出土人骨中的Sr、P、Zn、Ca、Cu、Mg、Fe、Ba、Mn等8种化学元素进行了测定,结果显示:察吾呼沟口四号墓地古代居民的饮食结构中以肉类食物为主,植物类食物为辅。
In recent years, the palaeo-diet is one of the important researches in the archaeological field. Chemical elements of human bones can supply a lot of valuable information to reconstruct the model of ancient diet. In this paper, nine chemical elements of human bones in Bronze age from Cemetery No. 4 at Hejing, Xinjiang were determined by ICP-AES. They are ferrum(Fe), zincum (Zn), calcium(Ca), phosphorum(P), manganum(Mn), magnesium(Mg), strontium(Sr), barium (Ba) and cuprum(Cu). Results indicated that the ancient inhabitants in Chawuhu lived mainly on the meat products with only a small amount of plants. At the same time, we guess the inhabitants of this site could cultivate some plants such as barley and wheat.
