Synopsis

Since 2008, national Zooarchaeology conferences have established themselves as a forum for discussion, networking, and dissemination of scientific work dedicated to zooarchaeological analysis in Argentina and other Latin American countries. Previous venues were: Malargüe (2008), Olavarría (2011), Tilcara (2013), Ushuaia (2016), Catamarca (2019), and La Plata (2022). This time, the venue will be the Institute of Anthropology of Córdoba (CONICET-UNC), the Museum of Anthropology, and the Department of Anthropology of the FFyH of the UNC.

The topics include theoretical, methodological, and technical aspects applied in both qualitative and quantitative archaeofaunal studies. This covers taphonomy and the processes of zooarchaeological record formation, the intensification of animal resource exploitation, species extinction, and domestication. It also explores the complementarity in the use of different environments or taxa, morphometric studies, determination of age profiles, and bone pathologies. In addition, topics such as diet (isotopes), recent and ancient DNA, and changes in human-animal relationships, among many others, are addressed.
