Laboratory for Zooarchaeological Research

Over Laboratory for Zooarchaeological Research

The Laboratory for Zooarchaeological Research at the University of Amsterdam houses one of the largest reference collections specifically designed for archaeological research. Since the 1960s the collection has gradually grown into an unique assemblage of mammals, birds, riptiles, amphibians, fish, exotic species and some species from the Middle East. The collection is used and appreciated by Dutch and international scholars and specialists. Students of the University of Amsterdam are trained in zooarchaeological research during their studies.

The collection was assembled by dr. Loes van Wijngaarden and is currently maintained by dr. Chiara Cavallo.
