Abstract

The present study aims to perform osteological mounting of domestic animals of the more well-known groups. To realize the different osteological mounts, we used a non-ligamentary mounting method. This technique consists in gluing the bones next to each other on a wooden or metallic structure. The bones are drilled and reinforced with aluminum wire. This method was preceded by a preparation step that included fleshing, degreasing, and rinsing. At the end of our study, 29 skeletons of bovids (including sheep, goats, and cattle), equids (horses), poultry, suids, carnivorans, camelids, leporids and wild animals were reconstructed.
