| Abstract: |
The large assemblage of animal remains from Late Neolithic Durrington Walls (Wiltshire) provides an opportunity to examine patterns of variability in the measurements of pig bones and teeth in a large archaeological sample, and to propose a set of 'standard' measurements to be used as a comparison with other European sites. The results provide a basis for suggesting which measurements are best suited to tackle different questions, such as the separation of populations, sexes and age groups. |
