Isotope Analysis On Human And Animal's Bone Unearthed From Zaoshugounao Site In Chunhua County,Shaanxi Province

Zaoshugounao Site is recently one of large scale sites in the Pre-Zhou and Western Zhou period dynasty,which archaeological discovered in Chunhua County,Shaanxi Province.People's production and living conditions at that time,Economic morphology,human and animal migration issues,and so on,has been the concern of the academia.Lots of historical remains and traces excavated that provided us with valuable research materials,which we can have a thorough understanding of the Pre-Zhou people's living conditions and mode of production.The archaeological research of Zaoshugounao Site,the exploration of Pre-Zhou ancients and the surrounding animals' behavior,In order to reveal and recover the Pre-Zhou dynasty society and the ancient environment,Which has very important academic significance.Combined with modern high-tech methods in Archaeological can further reveal the implied information of unearthed remains.Among them,isotopic analysis technology is an important means in the field of archaeology of science and technology,has become a hot topic in the archaeological research at home and abroad.It basically is to the analytical investigation of human and animal bones unearthed by the method of Bone chemical treatment,including carbon,nitrogen isotope analysis is used to study ancient people and animals recipes,strontium isotope analysis method is used to human and animal migration.This thesis mainly content is the isotope Analysis of Human and Animal's Bone Unearthed from Zaoshugounao Site in Chunhua County,Shaanxi Province.With the purpose of researching the Pre-Zhou period ancestors' and around animal's diet structure and migration,exploring and revealing Pre-Zhou period ancestors”social life forms,their relationship with surrounding animals,and restoring the ancient environment.Through the analysis and study of the isotope ratio test results,this article mainly is concluded as follows:1.The C,N stable isotope analysis on human bones of Zaoshugounao Site can be learned,Their recipes should be omnivorous food structure,mainly millet,millet and other C4 plants is the staple food,supplemented by a small amount of meat and meat from domesticated or part of a hunting animals.No obvious difference was found about food structure between men and women.The Pre-Zhou period ancestors" dietary structure is directly related to their life environment,agriculture,hunting,and domestic economic model.And at that time located in Shaanxi province regional ancestors has a similar diet,2.The C,N stable isotope analysis on Animals' Bone of Zaoshugounao Site can be learned,Sika deer,rabbits,roe deer and bear of Zaoshugounao Site were the wild animals,Which eat mostly C3 plants.Horses,cattle and sheep for domestic animals,which foods containing C3 plants and C4 plants.The pig is basically domesticated animals.Pig,and dog's food structure contains a certain amount of meat,their C and N isotope ratios are similar to people.Horses,cattle and sheep breeding way were wild grazing and fixed feeding combination,as for pig and dog,mainly is to feed the family,its food leftovers from people.The animal around the human,its food structure influenced by human activities and human society,there is a close connection,influence each other.3.The Sr stable isotope analysis on Human Bone of Zaoshugounao Site can be obtained that Zaoshugounao Site exist part of the floating population in the Pre-Zhou period.4.The Sr stable isotope analysis on Animals' Bone of Zaoshugounao Site can be obtained that,Unearthed in the ruins of a head of cattle,one dog,two sheep and a tiger is not a local animals,Migrated from other place to site around;And the rest was born native animals.
