| Popis: | 8 páginas, 9 figuras.-- Edited by Alexandra Legrand-Pineau, Isabelle Sidéra and Natacha Buc, Eva David, Vivian Scheinsohn. A rich bone debris assemblage derived from the manufacture of objects from this raw material was recovered from a blind drain in C/ San Luis (Plaza de El Pumarejo), Seville, Spain. The archaeological sequence of the site, represented in multiple structures, spreads from the 2nd century AD up until the present, with a hiatus between the 6th and 9th centuries. The worked bone waste, dated to the 18th century, attests to the occurrence of pre-industrial craft activity on the site. The morphological analysis of the discarded bone material indicates a high degree of standardisation - multifaceted cylindrical pieces were hand-carved from cattle metapodials that had previously been split in fine strips. The tiny perforation right in the centre that some of them have suggests the use of a lathe to produce the final objects – bone beads for rosaries. In spite of the volume of bone debris very few finished items were recovered. |
