Abstract: |
Animal bone was recovered from two Neolithic pits hurriedly excavated under rescue conditions by the Wiltshire Archaeological and Natural History Society in 2009. The bone was not examined by a zooarchaeologist, but was summarised in a grey literature report (Amadio 2010). The site is one of only few potential middle Neolithic pits from Wiltshire and as such is an important comparator for 2015-6 excavations by Historic England at West Amesbury Farm (HE 7238-671). This report is a specialist analysis of the animal bone assemblage from Tilshead Nursery School pits undertaken to inform post-excavation analysis of HE 7238-671 and in advance of a broader radiocarbon dating programme associated with that excavation. |
