英文摘要Mesowear III is a new form of mesowear that uses separately the mesial and distal surfaces of enamel band 2 of the upper second molar to differentiate between a browsing and a grazing diet. The enamel band of browsers is fiat and planar, in grazers it contains gouges and sub-facets which eventually become round. Mesowear In scores these shapes on a scale 1-4; score 1 represents the typical browser and score 4 represents a typical grazer. Differences in diet can also be studied by observing the junction between the mesial and distal side of the enamel band (j point); the j point is sharper and well defined in browsers, while it is rounder or non-existent in grazers. Wild browsers, grazers, and mixed feeders separate well using mesowear HI. The wild taxa data were similar to mesowear 111 of experimental goats that were fed a controlled grazing or browsing diet (species of plants known). In addition, the browsing versus the grazing goat mesowear HI signal becomes more distinct from each other by 40 days of feeding. Mesowear III so far gives a finer signal than previous mesowear (I and II).
