[Animal husbandry and hunting in the neolithic age as an example of animal remains Pestenacker (Lkr. Landsberg am Lech) settlement].
In Pestenacker (Lkr. Landsberg am Lech) archaeological excavations are done by the Bayer. Landesamt für Denkmalpflege since 1988 in a neolithic settlement, which is to be dated in the Altheimer Kultur. Dendrochronological datation indicates a beginning of settling in 3496/95 BC. The settlement is located below the border of a riss-glacial terrace beside a brook and shows a regular ground plan. Because of the high water level there is an excellent preservation of organic materials and bones. The osteological investigation of the animal bones shows data of the holding of domestic animals, the consumption of meat and the value of hunting. The biological analysis points out the reconstruction of the surrounding landscape and biotops. The archaeological investigation, a mapping of the distribution of the bones, shows the homework.
