Download or read book Archaeomalacology written by D. Bar-Yosef and published by Oxbow Books. This book was released on 2005-10-14 with total page 427 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Molluscs are the most common invertebrate remains found at archaeological sites, but archaeomalacology (the study of molluscs in archaeological contexts) is a relatively new archaeological discipline and the field of zooarchaeology is seen by many as one mainly focused on the remains of vertebrates. The papers in this volume hope to redress this balance, bringing molluscan studies into mainstream zooarchaeological and archaeological debate, and resulting in a monograph with a truly international flavour.
