In Search of Total Animal Exploitation

This volume contains nine papers given at the 15th UISPP congress which examine the exploitation of animal resources in Upper Palaeolithic and Mesolithic Europe and the economic and cultural choices involved. Case studies are from Aurignacian sites (French Pyrenees and northeastern France), Gravettian sites (Swabian Jura and Moravia), Magdalenian sites (Massif Central, southwestern France, Spanish and French Pyrenees), Epigravettian sites (southern Italy), and Sauvetterian sites (southern French Massif Central).
