Beastly Questions: Animal Answers To Archaeolog... -

Beastly Questions: Animal Answers to Archaeological Issues by Naomi Sykes advocates for a "social zooarchaeology," arguing that animal remains should be used to understand the deep cultural, social, and spiritual relationships between humans and animals beyond simple dietary analysis. The book challenges modern, economic-focused interpretations by providing a framework for analyzing animals as active participants in human history. Through a structured exploration of topics like domestication, the animal diaspora, and ritual, it offers an essential guide for exploring past ideologies and human identity.
