Integrative analysis of DNA, macroscopic remains and stable isotopes of dog coprolites to reconstruct community diet

Abstract Paleofeces or coprolites are often used to reconstruct diet at archaeological sites, usually using macroscopic analyses or targeted DNA amplification and sequencing. Here we present an integrative analysis of dog coprolites, combining macroscopic analyses, stable isotope measurements, and D...
