Haustierhaltung und Schlachtsitten des Mittelalters und der Neuzeitby Monika DollFirmly based on data from archaeological excavations, Monika Doll's thesis examines the nature of medieval animal husbandry in Germany between the 13th and 17th centuries with a corresponding discussion of butchering practices. Doll focuses in particular on the large assemblage of animal bones recovered from excavations at Marbach Castle in southern Germany. This assemblage contained large amounts of cattle bones as would be expected from medieval towns while the sizeable pig bone occurrence was typical of castle economies. Illustrations and contemporary drawings reconstruct butchering techniques of the period accompanied by a detailed discussion of the slaughter, consumption and other use of the carcasses. German text, French and English summaries. 289p, b/w illus, tbs (IA 78, VML 2003) Browse other Environmental Archaeology books |
