Zusammenfassung:Zooarchaeology is a detailed reference manual for students and professional archaeologists interested in identifying and analyzing animal remains from archaeological sites. It draws on material from all over the world, covering a time span from the Pleistocene to the nineteenth century AD with the emphasis on animals whose remains inform us about many aspects of the relationships between humans and their natural and social environments, especially site formation processes, subsistence strategies, and paleoenvironments. The authors discuss suitable methods and theories for all vertebrate classes and molluscs, and include hypothetical examples to demonstrate these. There are extensive references and illustrations to help in the process of identification.
