Examples from Balkan prehistory:
-cattle bucrania attached to houses' gables from the Neolithic of the Vinca
culture.
-red deer skulls and antlers deposited probably within the houses'
abandonment rituals at Lepenski Vir in the Danube Gorge (Dimitrijevic V.,
2000: The Lepenski Vir Fauna: Bones in Houses and Between Houses.- Documenta
Praehistorica, XXVII: 101-117, Ljubljana).
