Stable isotopes demonstrate the importance of freshwater fisheries in Late Holocene native Californian diets in the California Delta
Estimating paleodiet from macroscopic faunal and floral remains alone is difficult. Taphonomic biases make direct quantitative comparisons of different categories, such as fish bone, ungulate bone, and charred seeds challenging. Stable isotope data can help in this regard. To highlight this process, we present new bone collagen stable isotope data (δ13C, δ15N, and δ34S) from a series of animal and human remains from a Late Holocene (ca. 1000–300 …
Use of archaeological data in retracing diet and growth of extirpated fish populations in the California Delta
Insights from the shelter
Using in-depth face-to-face interviews, this study explored 34 homeless shelter workers’ perceptions of homelessness and working with the homeless. We asked the following questions: 1) What were the barriers that homeless shelter residents faced in combating homelessness, from the perspective of the homeless shelter workers? 2) What were the challenges that homeless shelter workers encountered in working with this at-risk population? Our findings…
How I became homeless
This study explores the stories of 40 homeless residents from a local shelter in El Paso, Texas located in the United States, with an emphasis on the socio-ecological factors (i.e. individual and environmental) leading to their homelessness. A total of 40 adult residents were recruited using purposive sampling between 2016 and 2017 to participate in an in-depth interview and a brief survey. Interview data were analysed using grounded theory metho…
A life course approach to understanding homelessness of shelter residents
Using in-depth interviews of 40 residents from a homeless shelter in El Paso, Texas in the United States, this study examines the etiology, processes, and patterns of homelessness by assessing those confronting homeless spells at different time points and for varying reasons. Our study is guided by the research questions: How did residents of homeless shelters experience transitions and turning points of homelessness? What were the coping resourc…
