Description of methods used for collection-generation of data: The South American Archaeological Isotopic Database (SAAID) is a compilation of all the available stable isotope measurements of archaeological interest (?13C, ?15N, ?34S, ?18O, and 87Sr/86Sr) from the 12 modern countries of South America, previously reported in archaeological, palaeoecological, bioarcheological, and forensic reports. The database was built through a strategy of Systematic Review, including scientific publications in peer-review journals of wide distribution, mainly located on the internet, but also grey literature i.e., unpublished dissertations and thesis, official research reports, and more local printed publications, as well as information reported in old printed books that, depending on the year of publication, are not always available online, and, finally, unpublished data provided through personal communications. FILE OVERVIEW -------------- 1. File List: Filename: SAAID_V.2.0_2023 Short description: Stable isotope measurements of archaeological interest (?13C, ?15N, ?34S, ?18O, and 87Sr/86Sr) reported for humans, animals, and plants from South America. This document presents the revised and updated version of the South American Archaeological Isotopic Database (SAAID). V.1.1 (2023-01-20). The South American Archaeological Isotopic Database (SAAID). V.2.0 contains the available stable isotope measurements for the South American countries included in the first version (i.e., Bolivia, Brazil, Colombia, Chile, Ecuador, Guyana, Peru and Venezuela), plus the information of Argentina, and Uruguay. Furthermore, this updated version incorporates the latest information available from other countries up to July 31, 2023. A total of 6339 entries were added (2443 for humans, 2506 for animals, and 1390 for plants). The file includes Metadata.
