“…Hedges et al (2007) demonstraram que a taxa de remodelação óssea é mais rápida em mulheres do que homens e que a cortical óssea de um indivíduo adulto pode refletir sinais isotópicos dos últimos 10 a 15 anos de vida. Crianças e adolescentes possuem uma remodelação óssea muito ativa devido ao crescimento corporal, com o ciclo completo de remodelação podendo ocorrer em apenas alguns meses nas crianças e bebês (Lapillonne et al, 2000).…”

The present work aims to deepen the understanding about diet and stress patterns during childhood, and to investigate the relationship between them, in the human skeletal series from the coastal shell mound Piaçaguera (7151-5668 years cal. BP) and the riverine shell mound Moraes (6791-4971 years cal. BP), both located in the State of São Paulo, Brazil. For diet, isotopic analyzes (δ 13 C and δ 15 N) were made in bone and dentine collagen, including some new approaches, such as the sequential dentine microsamples and the Bayesian mixture modeling for diet reconstruction. For the study of stress patterns, two osteological markers (Porotic Hyperostosis and Cribra Orbitalia) and one dental marker (Linear Enamel Hypoplasia) were analyzed. For Piaçaguera group, a dietary preference for marine fish, but also an important consumption of terrestrial animals, followed by freshwater fish and C3 plants was observed; during childhood were not found different weaning ages, and the post-weaning diet is similar to that of adults.The division of the Piaçaguera group showed a difference regarding patterns of exposure to develop anemia and of other environmental stressors during childhood, and a small difference regarding diet. For the Moraes group, a dietary preference for terrestrial animals, followed by freshwater fish and C3 plants was observed. The results led to the development of a new characteristic for Moraes group, in which the consumption of freshwater fish, together with prolonged breastfeeding, appears to buffer the impact that environmental stressors would be exerting on pregnant women and neonate babies. This study achieved rich details that made it possible to achieve a more comprehensive picture about the lives of some people, that allowed to infer models for the lifestyle of these two groups.

The study of infant feeding practices in archaeological populations can aid in the understanding of cultural attitudes towards dietary choices and how specific circumstances experienced by mothers and their offspring influence childhood health and survivorship. Breastfeeding and weaning patterns have received increased interest in Roman bioarchaeology, especially through the application of stable isotopic investigation of nitrogen (δ 15 N) and carbon (δ 13 C) values. This study presents the stable isotopic results of the first Roman bone sample analyzed from Switzerland (30 non-adults and 9 females), allowing us an unprecedented insight into health and diet at the site of Aventicum/Avenches, the capital city of the territory of Helvetii in Roman times (1 st-3 rd c. AD). The fact that the majority of the non-adult samples subject to stable isotope analysis were perinates, highlights the complex relationship between their δ 15 N and δ 13 C values and those of adult females, as different factors, including variation of fetal and maternal stable isotope values, the possible effects of intrauterine growth, as well as maternal/fetal disease and/or nutritional stress (e.g. nutritional deficiencies such as scurvy, parasitic infections, such as malaria), could have influenced the observed elevated δ 15 N values.
