Animal remains are commonly recovered from archaeological sites, often in large quantities. They are vital to any consideration of the story of past populations, providing information on diet, economy, status, society and culture. Animals are integral to human lives, even more so in pre-urban societies, and zooarchaeology can further our understanding of cosmology and the relationships between people and animals in the past.
