This new volume in the acclaimed "Amsterdam Archaeological Studies" series explores the roles of animals in a rural community in the civitas Batavorum, renowned for supplying wool and horses to their Roman rulers in the 1st to 3rd centuries AD. Large-scale excavations of two settlements and a cremation cemetery in Tiel-Passewaaij have yielded an animal bone assemblage of around 30,000 fragments.The study compares data from both the settlements and the cemetery, assessing the role of livestock in the local economy and the production of surplus products for the Roman market. The author also investigates the use of animals in funerary and other rituals. The inclusion of a catalogue of special animal deposits makes it a valuable reference work for animal bone specialists.
