Introduction -- 2. Animals and the economy of a rural community -- 3. Animals and ritual within a rural settlement -- 4. Animals in funerary ritual. 330 $aThis new volume in the acclaimed Amsterdam Archaeological Studies series explores the roles of animals in a rural community in the civitas Batavorum in the 1st to 3rd centuries ad. Large-scale excavations of two settlements and a cremation cemetery in Tiel-Passewaaij have yielded an animal bone assemblage of around 30,000 fragments. The study compares data from both the settlements and the cemetery, assessing the role of livestock in the local economy and the production of surplus products for the Roman market. The author also investigates the use of animals in funerary and other rituals. The inclusion of a catalogue of special animal deposits makes it a valuable reference work for animal bone specialists. Amsterdam Archaeological Studies is a series devoted to the study of past human societies from the prehistory up into modern times, primarily based on the study of archaeological remains. The series will include excavation reports of modern fieldwork; studies of categories of material culture; and synthesising studies with broader images of past societies, thereby contributing to the theoretical and methodological debates in archaeology. 410 0$aAmsterdam archaeological studies ;$v12. 517 3 $aExcavations in Tiel-Passewaaij 606 $aRomans$zNetherlands$zTiel 606 $aAnimals$xReligious aspects 606 $aExcavations (Archaeology)$zNetherlands$zTiel 607 $aTiel (Netherlands)$xAntiquities, Roman 615 0$aRomans 615 0$aAnimals$xReligious aspects. 615 0$aExcavations (Archaeology) 676 $a949.23 700 $aGroot$b Maaike$0800814 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910144446003321 996 $aAnimals in Ritual and Economy in a Roman Frontier Community$91802116 997 $aUNINA
