Research Abstract |
The goal of this research is to establish a methodology for elucidating rendering methods and intended uses from marks left on animal bones excavated from archeological sites, and to discuss the specifics of how animal resources are actually used. We observed the rendering behavior they use to obtain these animal resources when rendering game, and also developed an understanding of the rendering marks left on bones. We analyzed materials which allow observation of both human activities and the marks left by them, and clarified the relationship between "marks left on bones" and "the purposes and methods of animal resources utilization."
