Les Petits Bovides Pleistocenes Dans Le Bassin Mediterraneen Et Le Caucase

A detailed study of the exploitation of small bovine species based on faunal assemblages from eight sites in the east Pyrenees, the Languedoc region of France, southern Turkey and the Caucasus. Four main species are identified ( Ovis, Hermitragus, Capra and Rupicapri ) and analysed, with comparisons drawn between the sites in the study, and with a view to investigating the subsistence behaviour of people living in these areas during the Pleistocene. Consideration of the effects of changing environmental conditions on species levels and human behaviour is also acknowledged. French text.
