Over the last 10,000 y, humans have manipulated fallow deer populations with varying outcomes. Persian ( Dama mesopotamica ) are now endangered. European dama globally widespread and simultaneously considered wild, domestic, endangered, invasive even national animal of Barbuda Antigua. Despite their close association people, there is no consensus regarding natural ranges or timing circumstances human-mediated translocations extirpations. Our mitochondrial analyses modern archaeological...
Guinea pigs (Cavia spp.) have a long association with humans. From as early 10,000 years ago they were wild food source. Later, domesticated Cavia porcellus dispersed well beyond their native range through pre-Columbian exchange networks and, more recently, widely across the globe. Here we present 46 complete mitogenomes of archaeological guinea from sites in Peru, Bolivia, Colombia, Caribbean, Belgium and United States to elucidate evolutionary history, origins paths dispersal. Our results...
This article examines and compares the evolution of animal husbandry practices in several civitates Gallia Belgica western Germania Inferior, as documented by archaeozoological data. It focuses on two neighbouring , those Nervii Tungri, its aim being to explore factors that influenced diversity practices. In general, it appears cattle played an important role Early Roman economy these . There is evidence large were primarily bred for use draught animals. At same time, intensive processing...
The power harnessed by cattle traction was undeniably a valuable asset to Neolithic communities. However, data are still lacking on the timing, purposes, and intensity of exploitation draught animals. This paper sheds new light region Europe–Neolithic Ireland–for which our knowledge is particularly restricted as evidence from both Ireland Britain in this period has been so far patchy inconclusive. Using suite methods refined criteria for identification, we present robust large faunal...
Cattle are widely recognised as having important economic, social, symbolic and religious roles in Neolithic communities. This high status appears strongly linked with feasting commensality, events during which a great number of cattle slaughtered their carcasses purposefully deposited. paper presents details an unusually large assemblage remains recovered from the ditches later 4th millennium BC enclosure at Kilshane, Co. Dublin, eastern Ireland. Currently, Middle ceramics charcoal provide...
Many exotic animal species were introduced to Northern Europe during the Roman period, including fallow deer ( Dama dama ). To date, however, finds of bones at archaeological sites in this region have been sporadic and disarticulated, leaving uncertainty over their origins. This article presents first known articulated skeleton from North-western Europe. Osteological, ancient DNA, radiocarbon dating stable isotope analyses confirm that was established by probably originating translocated,...
Pachacamac was an important site of the Peruvian central coast between 5th and 16th centuries.
