    Nouvelles de la zooarchéologie québécoise
    (Canadian Zooarchaeology / Zooarchéologie canadienne, 2007) Courtemanche, Michelle; Saint-Germain, Claire
    In 2005, the Heritage division of the Ministry of Culture and Communications of Québec charged the Ostéothèque with conducting a review of the state of zooarchaeological research in the province. The results of the survey were presented in a report entitled Étude réalisée dans le cadre du projet du Répertoire canadien des lieux patrimoniaux (RCLP). The survey assesses the impact of archaeozoological research and classifies 291 archaeological sites in terms of the research and educational potential of their faunal assemblages. Of 291 sites examined, 41 were deemed of interest. This result is partly explicable due to the fact that most archaeozoological research in Québec is contractual in nature and research agendas are set by the outside agencies.

    Les sites préhistoriques d’abattage et de traitement de bisons : nouvelles perspectives de recherche
    (Canadian Zooarchaeology / Zooarchéologie canadienne, 2007) Julien, Marie-Anne
    This paper presents a synthesis of European prehistoric research concerning sites dominated by large bovids and discusses new research perspectives for these sites. An outline for the comparative analysis of bison kill and butchery sites from North American and European contexts is presented. These butchery and processing areas represent a precious source of information for furthering our understanding of past human behaviour, particularly past hunter-gatherer subsistence strategies. FR: Cet article a pour objectif de présenter notre projet doctoral d’analyse comparative des sites préhistoriques d’abattage et de boucherie de bisons. Ces gisements, connus en Europe et en Amérique du Nord, constituent de précieux témoins pour la compréhension des comportements humains passés et des diverses stratégies de chasse développées par les anciens chasseurs-cueilleurs. Un bref bilan des travaux menés sur les sites à grands bovidés sera exposé avant de proposer de nouvelles perspectives de recherche.
