Actually if we're pushing the product....
The new book Documenting Domestication: New Genetic and Archaeological
Paradigms by Zeder, Bradley, Emshwiller and Smith will be available in June
from California Press.
Of special interest to this group are the sections on documenting animal
domestication using archaeological and genetic approaches with articles on
pigs, goats, sheep, cattle, horses, dogs, and south american camelids. The
plant part is pretty good too, if I do say so.
