Inhaltsangabe

Mollusks are the most common invertebrate remains found at archaeological sites, but archaeomalacology (the study of mollusks in archaeological contexts) is a relatively new archaeological discipline and the field of zooarchaeology is seen by many as one mainly focused on the remains of vertebrates. The papers in this volume hope to redress this balance, bringing molluscan studies into mainstream zooarchaeological and archaeological debate, and resulting in a monograph with a truly international flavor.
