This project aims to investigate the causes that led to the human demographic explosion occurred during the Neolithic Revolution by analysing dental tissues through cutting-edge methods. This project expects to generate novel insights about the diet, health and weaning practices in Mediterranean human populations from the last 30,000 years. Expected outcomes of this project include the creation of new data on early life dietary transitions in archaeological populations, enhancing capacity to build interdisciplinary collaborations, and refining methods and concepts to study the diet of the past. This should provide significant benefits to Australian research in evolutionary anthropology, nutrition and in dentistry.

该项目旨在通过尖端方法分析牙齿组织，调查导致新石器时代革命期间人口爆炸的原因。该项目希望对过去30,000年来地中海人口的饮食、健康和断奶做法产生新的见解。该项目的预期成果包括创建关于考古人群早期饮食转变的新数据，提高建立跨学科合作的能力，以及改进研究过去饮食的方法和概念。这应该会为澳大利亚在进化人类学、营养学和牙科方面的研究提供显著的好处。
