| Sumario: | Based on the study of stable isotope analysis to identify the paleodiet in a sample from the archeological site of Chingú (Classic period, 200 – 650 A.D.) a comparative review was made with the results obtained from similar analyses in several contemporary settlements, mainly residential and administrative compounds of Teotihuacan, but also with sites in the Maya area such as Kaminaljuyu and Altun Ha, among others. The results indicate a clear difference between both regions, since the consumption of a higher proportion of C3 plants origin food and marine products in the southeastern sites stands out, as opposed to the dependence on maize cultivation observed in the Central Highlands of Mexico. |
