| Abstract: |
Studies the selection of parts of a prey animal that hunters decide to transport home, both in terms of the quantity and the quality of the meat. Uses the analysis of bone counts by maximum likelihood (ABCML) statistical method to develop a means of estimating transport selectivity from the frequencies of skeletal parts in a faunal assemblage. Uses an example from the USA. |
