Trabalhos do LARC 13 - Análise ictioarqueológica de uma amostra proveniente da Ponta do Verde, Tróia
Description
This study characterizes the fish remains found near a grave excavated in Tróia. The faunal set (individualized as U.E. 885, sample nº12725) results from at least three types of fish: sardine Sardina pilchardus, horse mackerel Trachurus trachurus and jackhammer/cachucho Dentex sp. The sardine is the most frequent species, representing up to 97% of the identified portion. Individual sizes vary between 12 and 18 cm in total length. The results achieved are comparable to those obtained for other contexts excavated in Tróia.
