A Perspective on Zooarchaeologygh time in the development and construction of bone, teeth, shell, and other organic materials in living animals, as they react to the species-specific demands of life. Traits of hard tissues such as bone and teeth also govern generally uniform responses to stresses inflicted after death, which zooa
