Abstract The abstract describing the content of the publication or report |
The large quantity of animal bone evidence has been used to interpret the formation of the site deposits. The lack of articulated bones, the degree of fragmentation of the bones from different deposits, and the quantification of canid gnawing shows that the meat was cooked and consumed, and the bones discarded for the dogs. At a later stage, larger bones were picked up and thrown away in the river or midden. Some ethnographic examples of periodic cleaning of farming settlements are cited. | ||||||
