“…In archeology, the Sr isotopic composition can be used to identify migrants and to examine movements of individuals (Bentley et al, , 2003Knudson et al, 2004Knudson et al, , 2005Kusaka et al, 2011;Montgomery et al, 2007;Müller et al, 2003;Price et al, 2000Price et al, , 2006aPrice et al, , 2006bSchweissing and Grupe, 2003;Tafuri et al, 2006;Tung and Knudson, 2008;Wright, 2005). Such information, in turn, provides insight into the dynamics and economy of past populations.…”

“…Si bien los arqueólogos han utilizado el análisis de los isótopos del estroncio para determinar la procedencia de artefactos de piedra (Curran et al 200;brilli et al 2005), de vasijas (Freestone et al 2003) y de maíz y de madera (English et al 200;benson et al 2003;Reynolds et al 2005), la mayoría de los análisis de los isótopos del estroncio en arqueología ha sido útil para responder a preguntas sobre migración humana (Sealy et al 99, 995;Price et al 99, 998, 2000, 200;Sillen et al 995, 998;Ezzo et al 997;Grupe et al 997;Montgomery et al 2000Montgomery et al , 2003bentley et al 2002Ezzo y Price 2002;Farnum et al 2003 Ms;Schweissing y Grupe 2003a, 2003bKnudson 200;Knudson et al 200, 2005;Wright 2005). Las diferencias en la relación de los isótopos del estroncio en el esmalte dental y huesos humanos pueden ser utilizadas para identificar los patrones de migración y el origen geológico de los inmigrantes (Ericson 985,989;Krueger 985 Ms;Sillen et al 989;Sealy et al 99;Price et al 99).…”

“…Though Celestún salt is not used for table salt today, it was consumed locally and exported to the Petén in the colonial period (A. P. Andrews 1983). Furthermore, high strontium-isotope ratios indicate that people from Tikal consumed sea salt in the Classic period (Wright 2005). Though people from Tikal probably imported some of their salt from the coast of what is now Belize, where salt was produced by boiling water (McKillop 2002), salt from evaporation pans at places like Celestún is of higher quality, is easier to produce/harvest, and may have been consumed by Tikal's elites (MacKinnon and Kepecs 1989).…”
