The transition of Australian Aborigines from a diet based on hunting and gathering to an essentially Western diet has been proceeding for almost 200 years, but in some regions was greatly delayed. In 1966/1967 G ould (1980) studied operational aspects of hunting-gathering in desert regions of northwestern Australia and recorded sufficient quantitative and species-specific data to allow definition of the diet over 5 months. By 1966, many Aboriginal people in that region had been displaced from their hunting grounds and were living in camps on cattle stations or in missions. Aboriginal diet on cattle stations in the north-westwas studied in 1951 (Commonwealth Departmentof Health) and shown to consist chiefly of fresh meat, wheaten flour, and sugar with small amounts of vegetables and dairy products. With the granting of citizenship in 1967, most Aborigines were dismissed from cattle stations and were moved first to town camps and later formed remote Aboriginal communities. Studies in the 1980s showed that the self-selected diet in such communities reflected the station diet to a greater extent than the traditional diet. Quantitative presentation of the above three diets, in terms both of foods and of major nutrients, show that many of the dietary inadequacies of the station diet identified in 1951 still persisted in self-selected Aboriginal diets in the 1980s. A comparison of the three diets with a modern recommended dietsupports the nutritional adequacy of the hunter-gatherer diet. Traditional cultural values assigned to food preferences continued to influence food choices in all three diets. 相似文献

Intrapopulational tooth striation variability has been studied in a sample of 99 individuals from the medieval agriculturalist population of La Olmeda (Palencia, Spain). The number, length, and orientation of all observed striations were recorded using a scanning electron microscope and an image analyzer system. Tooth striations were observed at 100 × magnification on the buccal surface of Pm4 and M1 teeth. The results obtained for the adult age group indicate that the buccal striation pattern is a characteristic trait which does not vary significantly among teeth for each individual. Agegroup variability suggests that buccal tooth striations accumulate over quite long periods of time. The characteristic striation pattern for the population is completely attained in the subadult age group. For the analyzed population, seasonal changes in dietary habits apparently did not affect the buccal striation pattern. Weaning of children in the population from La Olmeda seems to have occurred long before 2–5 years of age. Infants had a highly abrasive diet, and subadult and adult individuals would have had a slightly softer diet, perhaps due to a higher meat intake. The buccal striation pattern as a dietary indicator seems to be of great reliability, allowing for quantitative analysis of intrapopulation and interpopulation variability. © 1994 Wiley-Liss, Inc. 相似文献
