Cultural and Environmental Implications of Hippopotamus Bone Remains in Archaeological Contexts in the Levant

The origin of hippopotamus ivory used in artifact manufacture in the Levant is discussed, especially as it relates to the archaeozoological evidence of local hippopotamus herds. On the basis of the spatial distribution of southern Levantine sites where hippopotamus bones have been recovered, it is p...
