      abstract = {This book presents the state-of-the art in the analysis of  animal movements in the past and its implications for human  societies. It also addresses the importance of animal  activity and mobility for understanding past human  societies and past human-animal relationships through cases  studies from different periods and areas. It is the first  book to focus on the archaeology of animal movement on  different scales from fine-tuned muscle movements of  working animals to feeding behavior and to long-distance  movements across landscapes and regions. With the recent  development of fine-tuned methodologies such as stable  isotope analysis and physical activity assessment, the  potential to understand how animals moved about in the past  has increased substantially. While the chapters in the  volume utilize a wide range of archaeological methods, they  are all united by an emphasis on understanding animal  activity and mobility patterns as something that has a  major impact on human societies and human-animal  relationships. Chapters in this volume show that animal  activity patterns provide information on multiple aspects  of human-animal relationships, including analysis of animal  management practices, transhumance, global and regional  trade networks, and animal domestication. This volume is of  interest to scholars working in zooarchaeology and early  human societies.},
