Abstract The abstract describing the content of the publication or report |
Response to Dark's* criticisms of a previous paper** in which the authors supported the previous interpretation of stable isotope data from the Seamer Carr dog*** as indicating a marine-influenced diet. Additional isotopic data are presented on fauna from Star Carr, most importantly from two piscivorous diving birds. These new data are taken to further support the original contention that marine protein is the most likely source of the elevated carbon and nitrogen isotope values seen in the Seamer Carr dog. In addition, cutmarks on the humerus of a Brent goose, and the presence of an additional element (right femur) attributable to the previously known adult dog from Star Carr, are noted for the first time. Two new AMS determinations are presented for Star Carr, placing an adult dog in the period 9680 ±Â 55 BP (9270'“8840 cal BC) and a subadult dog somewhat later at 9342±41 BP (8735'“8475 cal BC). Unlike Seamer Carr, both dogs show entirely terrestrial (non-marine) diets. The papers referenced are: *Dark, P., 2003.
