Title Hadza scavenging: implications for Plio/Pleistocene Hominid subsistence
Date 1988-04
Description The frequent association of stone tools and large animal bones in African Plio/Pleistocene archaeological sites has long been taken as evidence of the importance of hunting in early hominid diets. Many now argue that it reflects hominid scavenging, not hunting.
