Bone assemblage

A bone assemblage refers to a collection of bones found together, typically from the same site or archaeological context. This can include animal bones from hunting or food remains, as well as human remains in archaeological studies. Researchers analyze these assemblages to learn about past diets, health, and cultures, helping to reconstruct how ancient people lived and interacted with their environment. The composition of the bones, their types, and their condition provide important insights into historical ecosystems and human activities.
