Using the basic principles outlined here, the bones of any vertebrate animal, including humans, can be identified and their relevance to common research questions can be better understood.Because the interpretation of archaeological sites depends heavily on the analysis of surrounding materialssoils, artifacts, and floral and faunal remainsit is important that non-human remains be correctly distinguished from human bones, that distinctions between domesticated and wild or feral animals be made correctly, and that evidence of the reasons for faunal remains in the site be recognized. But the ability to identify and analyze animal bones is a skill that is not easy to learn from a traditional textbook. In Identifying and Interpreting Animal Bones, veteran archaeologist and educator April Beisaw guides readers through the stages of identification and analysis with sample images and data, also illustrating how specialists make analytical decisions that allow for the identification of the smallest fragments of bone.Extensive additional illustrative material, from the authors own collected assemblages and from those in the Archaeological Analytical Research Facility at Binghamton University in New York, are also available in the books online supplement.
