Paleozoology and Paleoenvironments outlines the reconstruction of
ancient climates, floras, and habitats on the basis of animal
fossil remains recovered from archaeological and paleontological
sites. In addition to outlining the ecological fundamentals and
analytical assumptions attending such analyzes, J. Tyler Faith and
R. Lee Lyman describe and critically evaluate many of the varied
analytical techniques that have been applied to paleozoological
remains for the purpose of paleoenvironmental reconstruction. These
techniques range from analyses based on the presence or abundance
of species in a fossil assemblage to those based on taxon-free
ecological characterizations. All techniques are illustrated using
faunal data from archaeological or paleontological contexts. Aimed
at students and professionals, this volume will serve as
fundamental resource for courses in zooarchaeology, paleontology,
and paleoecology.
