Human and animal bones are amongst the most common finds on archaeological excavations of all periods; they can provide abundant information about past human populations; diet; economy; society and the natural world; the course aims to provide students with a sound and detailed knowledge and critical understanding of osteoarchaeological principles and methods for all theoretical and practical activities related to the study of skeletal remains from archaeological contexts; this knowledge and understanding is set within the wider context and perspective of archaeological studies; the sub-disciplines of human and animal osteoarchaeology have much in common at a core level; by covering both human and animal remains, this course affords students a breadth of knowledge, while leaving them well placed to specialise further.
