Social Zooarchaeology: Humans and Animals in Prehistory
Russell, Nerissa (Cornell University, New York)
This is the first book to provide a systematic overview of social zooarchaeology, which takes a holistic view of human-animal relations in the past. Until recently, archaeological analysis of faunal evidence has primarily focused on the role of animals in the human diet and subsistence economy. This book, however, argues that animals have always played many more roles in human societies.
