Diet can reflect many of aspects and values of a society. Our sources of information about diet in ancient Egypt is mainly provided by traditional archeological evidences as artistic and textual sources.

This book aims to shed some light on paleodiet reconstruction using trace elements analysis. This is provided through a detailed overview about how to use trace elements analysis to reconstruct ancient diet, with an indication to the importance of LIBS technique.
