Abstract
Robson and Elias calculate the nutritional values of food remains from Guilá Naquitz Cave in order to reconstruct the diet of the occupants. The chapter begins with a discussion of the theoretical problems inherent to this approach, drawing upon modern comparative evidence. Only the data from stratigraphic zones C and B pertain to the Early Archaic. (Theoretical, procedural and comparative aspects are indexed, respectively, for THEORETICAL ORIENTATION IN RESEARCH AND ITS RESULTS [121], ORGANIZATION AND ANALYSIS OF RESULTS OF RESEARCH [128] and/or COMPARATIVE EVIDENCE [171].)
