(Credit: Akshyeta Suryanarayan) (CN) Archaeologists are closer to understanding the diets of the people of the ancient Indus Civilization after new research found fatty residues in ceramic vessels, indicating an abundant use of animal products. In a study published this week in the Journal of Archaeological Science, a team of researchers led by Akshyeta Suryanarayan, a postdoctoral researcher at the University of Nice Sophia Antipolis in France, discovered the presence of lipids in the ancient pottery pieces. “The study of lipid residues involves the extraction and identification of fats and oils that have been absorbed into ancient ceramic vessels during their use in the past,” Suryanarayan said in a statement. “Lipids are relatively less prone to degradation and have been discovered in pottery from archaeological contexts around the world. However, they have seen very limited investigat

Indus Civilization: Ancient pottery analysis reveals meat-heavy diets

Bobby Deol clocks in 25 years in the industry Researchers found new lipid residue in pottery of ancient Indus Civilization leading to conclude that the meat of animals like pigs, cattle, buffalo, sheep and goat as well as dairy products, was heavily consumed in both rural and urban settlements in north-west India, the present-day states of Haryana and Uttar Pradesh. The study, published in the Journal of Archaeological Science, was led by Dr Akshyeta Suryanarayan, former Ph.D. student at the Department of Archaeology, University of Cambridge and current postdoctoral researcher at CEPAM, UMR7264-CNRS, France.
