Jen, you might want to look at my work on feasting at the Iron Age royal
site of Dun Ailinne in Ireland. There is a long piece in the site report,
written by Johnston and Wailes (2007) and a shorter version Here:
Ritual Feasting in the Irish
Iron Age: Re-examining the Fauna from Dún Ailinne in Light of Contemporary
Archaeological Theory. In Behaviour Behind Bones: The Zooarchaeology of
Ritual, Religion, Status and Identity, edited by Sharyn Jones O’Day, Win Van
Neer, and Anton Ervynck, pp. 62-65. Oxford: Oxbow Books
(2003).

Subject: [ZOOARCH] Feasting
I
would like to do a little research into feasting and read about any sites where
people have identified possible feasting activities.
Especially relating to
the UK, and the Iron Age and Romano-British periods.
I am hoping someone out
there might have a ready reading list available.
Maybe from the last PZG
meeting?
I would be grateful for any assistance
Thanks in
Advance
Jen Wood
