This research investigates change and stability in the dietary system of a prehistoric coastal population at O-luan-pi on the southern tip of Taiwan. The study highlights the interrelationships between human subsistence and environmental opportunities within a local system. As part of the general dietary reconstruction of this population, the temporal continuity and variability in O-luan-pi prehistoric subsistence systems is considered. Two patterns of subsistence change are evaluated. The first examines whether the diversity of natural resource consumption decreased through time; while the second investigates whether marine resource exploitation increased through time relative to other non-agricultural food sources.

520 $a This research investigates change and stability in the dietary system of a prehistoric coastal population at O-luan-pi on the southern tip of Taiwan. The study highlights the interrelationships between human subsistence and environmental opportunities within a local system. As part of the general dietary reconstruction of this population, the temporal continuity and variability in O-luan-pi prehistoric subsistence systems is considered. Two patterns of subsistence change are evaluated.

520 $a The excavation of the coastal site of O-luan-pi II in 1993 documents a continuous sequence of occupations beginning with an initial settlement around 4000 B.P. and continuing until 2500 B.P. Quantitative analyses of the faunal remains and artifacts provide new comparative data for studying the relationship between long-term changes in subsistence, technology, and environment.
520 $a Faunal analyses indicate that subsistence strategies of the initial settlement utilized more available animal species, including exploitation of shellfish, turtles, marine fish, and terrestrial mammals than those of the later occupation periods. Faunal remains indicate that food from marine fish and shellfish, were the primary non-agricultural resources of the O-luan-pi inhabitants between 3500 and 3000 B.P. Comparatively, all natural animal food resources decreased in the last occupation period. In addition, the diversity measurement indicates a fairly low degree of variation in their food resource exploitation. These changes are viewed as the result of a greater reliance on intensified agricultural production.
520 $a Oxygen isotope analyses indicate that most shellfish exploitation in prehistoric O-luan-pi was carried out between summer and winter. Fishing gear analyses suggest that prehistoric O-luan-pi II settlers developed very effective fishing strategies. Through time, increased offshore fish remains suggest a refined fishing strategy and an intensification of fishing subsistence activity. Overall, the evidence suggests that the major subsistence pattern of O-luan-pi inhabitants was a dual exploitation of agricultural and marine resources that changed with the development of the community.
