The Introduction of Chickens Into Norway and Their Early Use
Chickens reached areas of northern Europe by the 6th to 5th century bce , but their dispersal into Scandinavia appears delayed. Here we present a thorough assessment of chicken remains recovered from Borgund, a deserted late Viking Age–Medieval urban site located near Ålesund on the west coast of Norway. Direct and indirect dating of 20 chicken bones gives an age range from the Viking Age to the boundary between the High and Late Medieval. The Bo…
Estimating the age of domestic fowl (Gallus gallus domesticusL. 1758) cockerels through spur development
Determining the age of bird remains after the cessation of growth is challenging due to the absence of techniques such as tooth eruption and wear available for mammals. Without these techniques, it is difficult to reconstruct hunting strategies, husbandry regimes, and wider human-animal relationships. This paper presents a new method, developed from a collection (n = 71) of known-age specimens of domestic fowl (Gallus gallus domesticusL. 1758), f…
The role of birds at Çatalhöyük revealed by the analysis of eggshell
Birds in Death
The incorporation of avian material in archaeological mortuary contexts takes a variety of forms and occurs in a wide range of temporally, geographically, and culturally differentiated contexts. Through these death-related deposits researchers have the opportunity to examine avian–human relationships exhibited in life and beyond, particularly when examined alongside other contemporary site types. This paper considers the role of birds in ideas an…
Hens, Health and Husbandry
This paper sheds new light on aspects of Roman and Anglo-Saxon chicken (Gallus gallus) husbandry and health through integrating analyses of chicken skeletal remains and eggshell from five archaeological sites in England (Fishbourne Roman Palace, Flixborough, Lyminge, Princesshay, and Uley). In addition to standardised archaeozoological study, over 10,400 chicken elements from these sites were subjected to palaeopathological and metrical analyses …
