ERRATUM: Wright LE and Schwarcz HP (1998) Stable Carbon and Oxygen Isotopes in Human Tooth Enamel: Identifying Breastfeeding and Weaning in Prehistory. Am. J. Phys. Anthropol. 106: 1–18. Isotopic ratios were incorrectly printed as percentages (%) rather than units permil (‰). Wherever “breast feeding” and “breast fed” occur, the words should be combined into “breastfeeding” and “breastfed” respectively. The correct information on isotopic ratios is the following: p. 1, Abstract: all % signs should be “‰”; p. 2, column two, last line: “… δ 13 C values 1 , have been …”; p. 2, Footnote 1 should read: “Isotope ratios of carbon and oxygen are expressed in δ notation as follows, δ = [(R sample /R standard ) − 1] × 1000, where R = 13 C/ 12 C for δ 13 C, and R = 18 O/ 16 O for δ 18 O, and are in units permil, ‰.”; p. 3, column two: all % signs should be “‰”, except for the 23rd line from the bottom, which reads: “… provided 95% of water intake by all infants …”; p. 5: all % signs should be “‰”; p. 6, column one: 8th and 9th line from bottom should be “… mean deviations were 0.029‰ for δ 13 C and 0.024‰ for δ 18 O …”; p. 6, column one: 2nd line from bottom should be “… only 0.208‰ for δ 13 C and only 0.091‰ for δ 18 O …”; p. 6, column two: top line: “… of 0.5‰ in δ 13 C and 0.2‰ in δ 18 O …”; p. 8, 9 and 10: all % signs should be “‰”; p. 11, column two: 7th line from top: “… the lipids are 4‐6‰ lighter …”; p. 12, 13 and 14: all % signs should be “‰.”
