This is a student web project assigned to discuss the aspect of archaeology known as faunal analysis. In this project, students who will be working on a dig on the Hacimusular mound, on the Elmali Plain of southern Turkey, have concentrated on specific areas of faunal analysis as a project for a web-based internet course in preparation for the excavation in the Summer of 2000. The faculty advisor for this project was Dr. Jeanette Runquist .
Faunal analysis involves the study of bones from an archaeological site.
