A comparative Analysis of the Ribs of Ungulates for Archaeozoological Purposes
Abstract:
Ribs have been compared in respect of morphology in the following species of the ungulates: Alces alces (L.), Bison bonasus (L.), Bos primigenius Boj., Bos taurus L., Capra hircus L., Capreolus capreolus (L.), Cervus elaphus L., Coelodonta antiquitatis (Blum.), Dama dama (L.), Equus caballus L., Mammuthus primigenius (Blum.), Ovis aries L., Rangifer tarandus (L.), Rupicapra rupicapra (L.), and Sus scrofa L., and the intraspecific serial variation of these bones has been characterized, in order to make it possible for archaeozoologists to identify the above-mentioned species on the basis of ribs and their fragments.
