Book excerpt: Seventeen papers demonstrate how zooarchaeologists engage with questions of identity through culinary references, livestock husbandry practices and land use. Contributions combine hitherto unpublished zooarchaeological data from regions straddling a wide geographic expanse between Greece in the West and India in the East and spanning a time range from the latest part of the Palaeolithic to the Middle Ages. The vitality of a hands-on approach to data presentation and interpretation carried out primarily at the level of the individual site – the arena of research providing the bread and butter of zooarchaeological work conducted in southwest Asia – is demonstrated. Among the themes explored are shifting identities of late hunter-gatherers through interactions with settled agrarian societies; the management of camp sites by early complex hunter-gatherers; processes of assimilation of Roman culinary practices among Egyptian elites; and the propagation of medieval pilgrim identity through the use of seashell insignia. A wealth of new data is discussed and a wide variety of applications of analytical approaches are applied to particular case studies within the framework of social and contextual zooarchaeology. The volume constitutes the proceedings of the 11th meeting of the ICAZ Working Group - Archaeozoology of Southwestern Asia and Adjacent Areas (ASWA).

Book excerpt: This volume originates in a conference session that took place at the 2018 International Council of Archaeozoology conference in Ankara, Turkey, entitled "Humans and Cattle: Interdisciplinary Perspectives to an Ancient Relationship." The aim of the session was to bring together zooarchaeologists and their colleagues from various other research fields working on human cattle interactions over time. The contributions in this volume reflect well the breadth of work being undertaken on the ancient relationship between humans and cattle across the continents of Europe, Africa and Asia, and from the late Pleistocene to postmedieval period. Almost all involve the study of archaeological cattle remains and use different zooarchaeological methods, but the combination of these approaches with that of ethnography, isotopes and genetics is also featured.

Book excerpt: The Current Accounts Of The History Of Civilization Do Not Generally Appear To Give Adequate Importance To Non-Western Civilizations. Works Like Needham'S Science And Civilization In China Are Rare. The Accounts Of Indic Civilization On The Other Hand Have Either Neglected The Factor Of Civilizational Contacts Or Represented Them In An Inadequate Manner. Few Serious Attempts Have Been Made To Gain An Insight Into Human Civilization Through The Comparative Historical And Integrated Studies In All Its Aspects. Historical Research Necessarily Tied To The Study Of The Source Material Is Still In The Process Of Rising To The Level Of Universal History. The Present Volume, Is Intended To Review The History Of Sicence, Philosophy And Culture In Indian Civilization In The Context Of Civilizational Contacts With Iranic, Semitic And Hellenic Worlds And Comparable Developments In Them. The Volume Is Divided Into Four Sections: Proto-Historic People And Language, Social And Technological Foundations Of Civilization, The Most Ancient Indian Religious Traditions And Birth And Rise Of Science And Philosophy. The Focus Of The Present Volume Is On Science, Philosophy And Culture, And Not On Political History Or Merely Regional And Epochal Developments. It Is Not Intended To Give In This Volume A General History Of Civilizations Between India And Mediterranean World But Is Intended To Highlight How Contributions Were Made To The Common Human Quest Of Truth, Goodness And Beauty Under Varying Conditions And Wide Ranging Contacts.
