Shepherds and animal husbandry, origins, and development: New theoretical and methodological approaches

We are honoured to introduce this special volume for Quaternary International Journal entitled: Shepherds and Animal Husbandry, Origins, and Development: New Theoretical and Methodological Approaches. Our aim when preparing this volume was to provide an overview on the current state of the art on the study of livestock practices in past populations, in a wish to integrate theoretical knowledge with updated methodological approaches.
