| description |
Archaeological excavators are latecomers by
vocation, and given good preservation, much of the fi nds
are animal bones. Taphonomy, the critical evaluation of
bioarchaeological information in archaeology through
understanding site formation processes, has become
one of their chief tools in dealing with bone remains.
A concept introduced in paleontology (Efremov 1940),
taphonomy has not only become the indispensable
fi rst step in archaeozoological inquiry, but also the
best common denominator linking various studies
of human-animal relationships across chronological
periods and continents. This aspect of taphonomy
is especially important in presenting geographically
diverse areas with a rich and varied archaeological
heritage such as the Neotropical region that includes
what is historically known as Latin America and the
southern United States around the Gulf of México.
Immense latitudinal and altitudinal variability of
habitats has made taphonomy the lingua franca
between archaeozoologists - sometimes even within
geographically varied countries such as Argentina
(Gutiérrez et al. 2007). Párrafo extraído de la reseña a modo de resumen. |
