Dear RLJ,
most studies deal with Roman smoking/curing procedure only, but possible
evidence for prehistoric smoke-dried meat (the notorious perforated
cattle scapulae) is given by
Van Mensch - Ijzereff (1977): Smoke-dried meat in prehistoric and Roman
Netherlands
in: Ex Horreo: van Beek, Brandt, Groenman-van Waateringe eds., Amsterdam
all the best
Karl
