Improving identification of caprine mandibles
Ploughing through pathologies
This paper presents the first systematic study of cattle traction in Bronze and Iron Age Southwest Asia that integrates textual, iconographic, and primary zooarchaeological data. Using draught cattle as a proxy for state-driven agricultural and transport intensification, it explores spatial and temporal patterns in relation to political and economic developments, such as military expansion. Faunal assemblages from five key archeological sites – H…
