Proportional contribution of Deer&Horse (red deer and horse), Saiga (saiga antelope), Mammoth (woolly mammoth) and Hare (hare) (from bottom to top along the y axis) as estimated by SIAR using the considering both δ¹³C_coll and δ¹⁵N_coll values for human remains from Buran-Kaya III layers 6-2 and 6-1. Black boxes and whiskers show the median with 1^st and 3^rd quartiles and ranges with 1.5 times length of the interquartile range above the 3^rd quartile or below the 1^st quartile, respectively. The shaded area indicates the Kernel density plot of the probability density of prey proportions. The brackets link the resources with a significant negative correlation in their posterior distribution. Stars are placed close to the food resource whose significant contribution is in accordance with the δ¹⁵N_Phe values.
