Abstract

Neanderthals and their predecessors co-existed with a number of large carnivores. Hence, the Neanderthal predatory niche was shaped by their co-existence with carnivores exploiting the same categories of prey. Here, I analyze cave hyena prey deposits and Neanderthal bone assemblages dating to MIS 3 and 4 to determine the degree of niche overlap between Neanderthals and large carnivores. The results suggest that although the exploited species overlap between Neanderthals and cave hyenas, the emphasis of exploitation was on different animal groups.

Vorheriges Kapitel The Importance of Fish, Fowl and Small Mammals in the Paleolithic Diet of the Swabian Jura, Southwestern Germany

Nächstes Kapitel Bone Grease Rendering in Mousterian Contexts: The Case of Noisetier Cave (Fréchet-Aure, Hautes-Pyrénées, France)

For the hyena assemblages from Bois Roche, Les Plumettes and Rochers-de-Villeneuve, bones identified to herbivore size classes were included in the ∑NISP; this may lead to a slight underestimation of hyena assemblage diversity relative to the Mousterian assemblages.
