The study of fish remains from lacustrine and archaeological deposits plays a crucial role in paleoenvironmental and ecological reconstruction. By analyzing fish skeletal remains, scientists can reconstruct ancient biodiversity, past water temperatures, salinity levels, and aquatic habitat conditions, offering insights into historical climate patterns
This course aims to introduce students to major themes and methods of analysis in aquatic zooarchaeology and to teach the principles of fish bone identification, lacustrine taphonomy, zooarchaeological methods, and to explore issues of calculations and interpretation
