Comunidades humanas y animales frente a los cambios ambientales. Una mirada desde la zooarqueología
Este dossier reúne un conjunto de presentaciones efectuadas en la Quinta Reunión Académica del Grupo de Trabajo de Zooarqueología Neotropical (NZWG) del International Council for Archaeozoology, que tuvo lugar en la Universidad Alberto Hurtadode Santiago de Chile entre los días 18 y 20 de noviembre de 2024. Su tema fue “Las comunidades humanas y animales frente a los cambios ambientales. Una mirada desde la Zooarqueología” y estuvo organizada por…
Lower third molar morphometrics and dietary implications in the archaeological cervid from Playa Don Bernardo archaeological site, Panamá
This study presents an osteometric analysis of the lower third molar (m3) from an archaeological cervid recovered from the Playa Don Bernardo (PdB) archaeological site on Pedro González Island, part of Panama’s Pearl Islands, dating to approximately 5000 BP. A total of 176 m3 specimens from both modern and archaeological cervids were examined, including 26 teeth from PdB and comparative samples from Odocoileus virginianus, Odocoileus hemionus, Hi…
Unravelling the past of cervid populations on the Pearl Island Archipelago (Panama) through a two dimensional geometric morphometric analysis of the lower third molar
Ecomorphological study of Caribou (Rangifer tarandus caribou) distal phalanx
Reindeer mobility patterns exhibit significant variability in modern ecosystems, especially between open and wooded environments. This variability makes it difficult to reconstruct past reindeer migration patterns, which is key to understand the role of reindeer herds in the sustenance and territorial organization of Prehistoric hunter-gatherer societies. By examining morphology associated with different habitats and movement patterns, insights i…
Insights into archaeological and modern neotropical biomes
The white-tailed deer ( Odocoileus virginianus Zimmermann 1780) holds significant ecological importance across the Americas, both historically and in modern times. This species ranges from southern Canada to Brazil and exhibits polytypic characteristics, adapting well to diverse habitats including temperate, subtropical, semi-arid, rainforest, and savanna environments. In paleontology and archaeology, the comparison of dental characteristics betw…
Allometry of Mexican hogfish ( Bodianus diplotaenia ) for predicting the body length of individuals from two pre‐Columbian sites in the Pearl Island archipelago (Panama)
The Mexican hogfish (Osteichthyes: Labridae, Bodianus diplotaenia Gill, 1862) is widely distributed throughout the tropical eastern Pacific from the Gulf of California to northern Peru, including all oceanic islands. Artisanal fishers occasionally capture it today and its remains are recovered at pre‐Columbian dwelling sites along the Pacific Coast of America. This paper addresses the advantages of using allometry to estimate size ranges of Mexic…
Human ecological impacts on islands
The present study's primary goal is to apply analyses of stable isotopes and tooth micro- and mesowear to the question of dietary change among a mid-Holocene population of small brocket deer (Cervidae: Mazama) in response to anthropogenic alteration of the natural insular vegetation for approximately 450 calendar years (6060-5620 cal yr BP). The brocket deer remains were found in shell-bearing middens on Pedro González in the Pearl Island archipe…

Beyond white-tailed deer hunting in Aguazuque
It is assumed that the hunter-gatherers of the Sabana de Bogotá focused their subsistence strategies on white-tailed deer (Odocoileus virginianus) hunting. The deer was their main prey because it was one of the largest animals in the area. However, there are differences between the early, middle, and late Holocene hunter-gatherers in terms of their ways of life. The aim of this article is to contribute to a better understanding of animal resource…
Zooarchaeological and taphonomical study of the white-tailed deer (Cervidae)
Rabbits as Food at the end of the Upper Palaeolithic at Molí del Salt (Catalonia, Spain)
Many factors have been causally linked to the diversification of hunting during the European Palaeolithic: declining supplies of high-ranked prey, considerable human demographic growth, reduced residential mobility, larger populations of ubiquitous small mammals and significant technological developments. However, small prey exploitation was not uniform: the European rabbit (Oryctolagus cuniculus) is the most frequent species in the Upper Palaeol…
El Cuy (CaviaSp.), Un Recurso Alimenticio Clave en Aguazuque, Un Sitio Arqueológico de la Sabana de Bogotá, Colombia
Los cuyes (Caviasp.) son roedores que fueron domesticados en la Zona Andina de América. Su consumo aún sigue siendo importante en países como Ecuador y Perú, así como en el sur de Colombia. En épocas prehispánicas, el aprovechamiento de Cavia se realizaba a lo largo de la cordillera de los Andes en Colombia; sin embargo, en la actualidad solo es consumido en Nariño, al sur del país. En Colombia existen dos especies silvestres (Cavia anolaimaeyCav…
Exploitation of dolphins (Cetacea
Dolphins are widespread in warm oceanic and coastal waters. They habitually frequent islands. In California, Chile, and other localities, prehistoric peoples targeted dolphins. Some communities specialised in their capture. Elsewhere, prehistoric human use of cetaceans is attributed to opportunistic exploitation of active or stranded animals. In Meso- and Central America, the scarcity of cetaceans in archaeological sites is inferred to reflect th…
La biología de la conservación aplicada a la zooarqueología
The aim of this article is to evaluate O. Virginianus hunting in Aguazuque, a late hunter-gatherer site at the Sabana de Bogotá by using theoretical and methodological elements of conservation biology, such as sustainability. In this study, diversity indexes which are commonly utilized in ecology were used as well as in zooarchaeology with indexes like NISP and MNI. In the case of the O. virginianus hunting at Aguazuque the result is that it was …
Una Pregunta Para La Historia Ambiental Colombiana
La diversidad biológica es entendida como la riqueza de la vida en la tierra, desde la complejidad contenida en los genes, los millones de plantas, animales y microorganismos, hasta los ecosistemas que conforman el medio ambiente. Sin embargo dada la magnitud de las actividades humanas, tales como la degradación y fragmentación de hábitats, la contaminación, la sobreexplotación, la introducción de especies y las enfermedades, estas se han convert…
