Summary
The Wolf Creek population from the Middle Missouri region was analyzed to determine if delta /sup 13/C and elemental composition will vary in a population, and what the nature of the variation is. It was concluded that: (1) delta /sup 13/C composition is different between remnant bone protein and soft tissues; (2) delta /sup 13/C varies between interior Amerindian populations primarily because of the presence or absence of maize horticulture; and (3) delta /sup 13/C clusters by sex in a C/sub 4/ population. 43 references, 11 figures.
