Dama dentition: a new tooth eruption and wear method for assessing the age of fallow deer (Dama dama) by Bowen, Frazer, Carden, R.F., Daujat, J., Grouard, Sandrine, Miller, Holly, Perdikaris, Sophia, Sykes, Naomi

“…The method was developed from a large collection (n = 156) of known‐age Dama dama specimens, has been blind tested by members of the zooarchaeological community and represents a user‐friendly system with the potential to generate large compatible datasets through which the dynamics of human–Dama relationships can be examined.…”

New Insights into the Evolution of the Human Diet from Faecal Biomarker Analysis in Wild Chimpanzee and Gorilla Faeces. by Sistiaga, A., Wrangham, R., Rothman, J., Summons, Roger

“…Our understanding of early human diets is based on reconstructed biomechanics of hominin jaws, bone and teeth isotopic data, tooth wear patterns, lithic, taphonomic and zooarchaeological data, which do not provide information about the relative amounts of different types of foods that contributed most to early human diets. …”

Imports and isotopes: a modern baseline study for interpreting Iron Age and Roman trade in fallow deer antlers by Osborne, David

“…The human influence on the present-day distribution of the species makes it particularly interesting from a zooarchaeological perspective. This paper describes my MSc research, as part of the AHRC-funded project Dama International: Fallow Deer and European Society 6000 BC–AD 1600, looking at antlers from Iron Age and Roman sites in Britain for evidence of trade in body parts and whether this can be elucidated by a parallel stable isotope study of modern fallow antlers of known provenance.…”

A comparative study of archaeobotanical remains from Neolithic and Chalcolithic sites in Northern Fars, Iran by Ilkhani Moghadam, Hengameh

“…However, these arguments were mainly based on archaeological finds and settlement distributions rather than primary bioarchaeological evidence. The recent zooarchaeological studies in the region provided important insights into the prehistoric subsistence strategies practiced by the prehistoric inhabitants of Fars. …”
