Hello, Marjory,
Food, Energy and Society, edited by D. Pimentel and M. Pimentel
Mentioned it before and its got quite a lot of figures around this subject.
Also and can't rememeber when there was an article in New Scientist
where anthropologists discussed the overlapped stacking into a given area by
several peoples where their food strategies and culture were setup so that
each utilised the environment in a different way, avoiding competition.
Unfortunatly the cultural side seemed to have hardened in the tribes studied
into considering your tribe human and the others, who had "bizarre foods and
ways" were not.
