<p class="MsoNormal"><b><span lang="EN-US" style="line-height:14px"><font face="tahoma, sans-serif">Session Abstract</font></span></b></p><p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-US" style="line-height:14px"><font face="tahoma, sans-serif">Animals are exploited by humans in a variety of ways. Archaeozoological studies often stress food consumption and production although animals were also important sources of raw materials (leather, bone, antler, tooth, shell, etc). This research field has lately started expanding, especially since the formation of the WBRG and AMWG within ICAZ. The first raw material session for hard osseous materials was held at the Paris ICAZ in 2010.</font></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-US" style="line-height:14px"><font face="tahoma, sans-serif">In this session, we are looking for universal patterning in the way animals are used as sources for raw materials, stressing comparative aspects. Papers may focus on choice of taxa, biomechanics, subsistence, ethno-archaeology, ethnography, availability, and raw material selection, technical style and social identities, as well as symbolic and ritual aspects of raw material exploitation.</font></span></p>

<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-US" style="line-height:14px"><font face="tahoma, sans-serif">This section focuses more on what animal remains can tell us about the societies and cultures exploiting them. Themes that could be discussed could include: How and by whom these resources were exploited, how this exploitation was organized within society, what the resources were used for (ornamentation, subsistence, economic purposes) and how these secondary stages of exploitation were executed.</font></span></p>
