		The science Archaeozoology is mainly occupied with the identification of bone fragments from archaeological sites and the investigation of the relationship between animals and humans in the past.
		Archaeozoology at the Transvaal Museum is unique in that we are the only official division of its kind in Southern Africa.
		The reintroduction of indigenous domestic fauna to Southern Africa: Archaeozoology is also participating in the recent revival of the reintroduction of indigenous domestic animals to farming in Southern Africa.

		The material was recovered at the end of the campaign in the Odeon's Corridor 1, thrown in there when the building was abandoned and used as a butcher's dump (see Archaeozoology: August 21-25, 2005).
		If the processing of these animals is similar to that of the ovicaprines, they will leave few traces at the slaughtering place, as the animal would have been sold in portions with its bones.

	Museum of New Zealand Te Papa Tongarewa, Wellington, NZ - Archaeozoology
		Archaeozoology has its origins in the branch of archaeology that studies how people survived in prehistory (before written records were made), what food they ate, and how they obtained it - what researchers call human subsistence economics.
		It also includes what effects people hunting certain animals had on that animal’s populations, what kinds of food these people ate and why, butchery processes, and other related issues.
		The archaeozoology laboratory was founded in 1987 by the then Director of the National Museum of New Zealand, Dr John Yaldwyn.

		Archaeozoology is the identification, analysis and interpretation of animal remains from archaeological sites.
		Dor is ideal for the diachronic study of the changes of foodways and other uses of animal resources in an urban, Mediterranean maritime environment, and comparison with other economies.
		Finally, Archaeozoology is a tool for reconstructing ecological change.

	Zooarchaeology - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Zooarchaeology (or Archaeozoology) is the study of animal remains from archaeological sites.
		The modern derivatives, such as zooarchaeology, zooarcheologie, or zooarchaeologia are probably the most commonly used terms in the Americas and reflect the anthropological perspective prevalent in their research.
		In Eurasia and Africa the term archaeozoology is more commonly seen, and this emphasises the biological nature of the animal remains.

		She has also served as a research consultant and associate for the Thomas Jefferson Memorial Foundation and the Robert S. Peabody Museum of Archaeology, Andover, Massachusetts (until its closure).
		Dinah is currently working on two major zooarchaeological research projects: the analysis of medieval and pre-Roman faunal remains from the site of Capalbiaccio, Italy, and the analysis of Iron Age horse remains from Cameroon, Nigeria and Chad.
		The latter will form the basis of a paper to be presented at the meetings of the International Conference on Archaeozoology, in Mexico City, August 2006.

	Archaeozoology. Human-animal Interaction as a Tool for Present and Future Action
		Archaeozoology is the study of animal remains and animal-related artefacts (i.e., artefacts made from animal-products, animal figurations, and instruments used for animal treatment) originating from archaeological contexts, which throw light on the history of man-animal relationship and on any of the animal species involved, respectively.
		This field of research is of crucial importance for both archaeology and biosciences.
		Therefore, any understanding of cultural history is necessarily largely connected with the results of archaeozoology.

		That is the first question that one asks this year’s winner of the annual Dusty Miller Fellowship for Outstanding Young Researchers.
		He then goes on to explain: “Archaeozoology deals with studying animal bones from archaeological sites.
		This is a specialized scientific discipline, combining knowledge and techniques from several scientific fields—zoology, ecology, anthropology, and archaeology—all of which serve to investigate the relationship between animals and humans in the past.”

		However, the study of ancient DNA is not restricted to interpreting how and when humans first created the ‘domestic menagerie’; enhancements in the techniques used to analyse DNA, coupled with an improved appreciation for issues of degradation / contamination and preservation of this unique material, herald a new era of ‘science in archaeology’.
		The International Council for Archaeozoology “Archaeozoology and Genetics” working group was founded in 2002 to promote communication and to promote good working practices and fruitful collaboration within and between these disparate fields.
		Following on from last year’s successful inaugural meeting in Paris, the Second Archaeozoology and Genetics ICAZ Working Group meeting, was held at the McDonald Institute for Archaeological Research, University of Cambridge, UK on the 18th and 19th June 2005 and was deemed by all to have been a great success.

	Biological Archaeology: Modules
		This module aims to enhance the level of archaeozoological understanding and expertise gained in ‘Paleoeconomy’.
		The module will study methodological and interpretive issues in archaeozoology alongside practical laboratory sessions on animal bone identification, ageing, sexing, pathology and other bone modifications, recording and quantitative analysis, backed up by studies in the interpretation of published assemblages.
		This team-taught module will focus on the integration of evidence from human osteology, archaeozoology, archaeobotany and isotopic studies in order to explore the subject of human nutrition from an holistic viewpoint.
