From: Analysis of animal remains from archaeological sites [mailto:[log in to unmask]] On Behalf Of Josep-Anton Molina Vallmitjana Sent: Tuesday, February 11, 2014 11:39 AM To: [log in to unmask] Subject: [ZOOARCH] Fwd: Turkey bones Dear All, I am looking for information about finding of bony remains of turkey *Meleagris gallopavo*) previous to the 18th century in Europe. In these moments I am studying the fauna proceeding from an archaeological excavation realized in Sabadell (Barcelona)and in her I have identified some bones of this bird. They seem to date back of between the second half of the 16th century and beginning of the17th century. Attentivly Josep
