| Summary: | This book represents a nuanced perspective on zooarchaeological studies. Although primarily conceived as proceedings from the 9th Postgraduate ZooArchaeology (PZAF) Forum held online in 2021, it gradually become something more, a "magnifying glass" that enabled us to take a closer look at research conducted by early career researchers in zooarchaeology. In times of growing insecurity in both academia and the field of archaeology itself, it puts the spotlight on a series of case studies from emerging scholars across Europe, most of which derived from their Master's and PhD theses. The topics covered in this volume include a wide range of traditional and non-traditional zooarchaeological analysis, including taphonomy, zooarchaeology of ritual, isotope analysis, radiocarbon dating and animal iconographic representations. |
