We found that there were significant variations in all three elemental isotope ratios through time, although the variations were not synchronous. This study shows the utility of using herbivore tooth dentine carbon and nitrogen isotope values as indicators of environmental changes, in addition to their use as dietary indicators. %J Journal of Archaeological Science: Reports %O Journal of Archaeological Science: Reports %V 14 %& 189 %P 189 - 198 %@ 2352-409X
