Stable isotopic data of first molar from ST61
This data set gives the stable carbons and nitrogen isotope ratios of dentin serial sections obtained from a human maxillary first molar tooth of an individual ST61 (AD 1655–1732) from the Unseiji temple, Japan, reported in Tsutaya et al. (2016).
unseiji_ST61_M1
unseiji_ST61_C is a list containing 6 elements.
rt.y |
y-value for the root tip (i.e., length [mm] of the dentin). |
ecj |
x- and y-coordinates of enamel-cement junction. Dentin horn is placed on the geometric origin, and root tip is placed on the y-axis with a positive value. |
section.y |
y-values for the horizontal sections. |
t.start and t.end |
The age at the start and end of dentin formation, respectively. |
section |
Data frame with 16 dentin serial sections (rows) and 3 variables (columns) of assigned midpoint age with equal temporal division, carbon, and nitrogen isotope ratios, named age, d13C, and d15N, respectively. Stable isotope ratios of the last 3 sections (i.e., row number 14-16) should be excluded because of the porous structure of inner dentin.
