Structurally, this monograph flows from an introduction and review of previous scholarship and questions, through employed theory and developed methods, to analyses of archaeological materials, and finally finishes by overall discussion and closing remarks. Topics covered in this monograph include the significance of the study of cattle traction in North China, understanding and research into cattle traction within history, art and archaeology, and identifying traction in cattle bones. The author also uses the Pathological Index-refined (PIr) and morphometrics to test the reliability of both methods in identifying traction in cattle bones. The author applies both methods to archaeological sites in the Yellow River region. This book is of interest to researchers studying the Late Bronze Age and zooarchaeology. 001449529 588__ $$aOnline resource; title from PDF title page (SpringerLink, viewed September 23, 2022). 001449529 650_0 $$aAnimal remains (Archaeology)$$zChina. 001449529 650_0 $$aCattle$$zChina$$xHistory. 001449529 651_0 $$aChina$$xAntiquities. 001449529 655_0 $$aElectronic books. 001449529 655_7 $$aHistory.$$2fast$$0(OCoLC)fst01411628 001449529 77608 $$iPrint version:$$z3031155343$$z9783031155345$$w(OCoLC)1337143077 001449529 830_0 $$aInterdisciplinary contributions to archaeology. 001449529 852__ $$bebk 001449529 85640 $$3Springer Nature$$uhttps://univsouthin.idm.oclc.org/login?url=https://link.springer.com/10.1007/978-3-031-15535-2$$zOnline Access$$91397441.1 001449529 909CO $$ooai:library.usi.edu:1449529$$pGLOBAL_SET 001449529 980__ $$aBIB 001449529 980__ $$aEBOOK 001449529 982__ $$aEbook 001449529 983__ $$aOnline 001449529 994__ $$a92$$bISE
