In this work we present the first regional analysis for Neolithic southeastern Italy as a whole, including both substantial original data and a review of the available published data. The results show that dietary isotopes can shed new light on a number of traditional and important questions about Neolithic foodways. First, we observe regional variations in the distribution of stable isotope values across the area, suggesting variability in the Neolithic diet. Secondly, we show that, although the plant food calorific intake was primary for these communities, animal products were also important, representing on average 40% of the total calories. Third, we note that marine fish was only minorly consumed, but that this could be an underestimation, and we observe some variability in the regions considered, suggesting dif...

In Apulia a wide circulation of lithic raw materials of different qualities is attested during the Neolithic. This evidence can be linked to changes in economic and social strategies needing different systems of supply and circulation of raw materials. A significant indicator is provided, for example, by the ratio between local-exotic flint attested in the Neolithic sites and by its variability over time. This paper presents the results of the technological study of the lithic industries of some Neolithic sites in Apulia. These evidence are discussed together with the published data from other Apulian Neolithic sites according to a diachronic perspective. Different variables are taken into consideration, such as the distance of the sites from supply areas, the alternative possibilities of obtaining raw materials, the functional differences between sites.
