Book Description
Quantitative Paleozoology describes and illustrates how the remains of long-dead animals recovered from archaeological and paleontological excavations can be studied and analyzed. The methods range from determining how many animals of each species are represented to determining whether one collection consists of more broken and more bued bones than another. All methods are described and illustrated with data from real collections, while numerous graphs illustrate various quantitative properties.
