| چکیده | ||
| The present study is based on the bioarchaeological analysis of animal and botanical remains from the Qoli Darvish site in the Qom Plain, aiming to reconstruct the climate and subsistence economy of the communities settled in this region during the third and second millennia BCE. The dataset comprises over four thousand animal bone fragments recovered from the occupational layers of periods II to VI at the site. The identified animals include domestic and wild herbivores, while identified botanical remains are mostly composed cereal. Taxonomic and anatomical analyses of the bones and botanical remains provide valuable insights into the economic structure, dietary habits, animal husbandry and plant cultivation practices, and reflections on climatic changes. The results of these studies suggest that, contrary to the present arid and desert-like landscape of the Qom Plain, the region experienced a relatively more humid climate during the investigated period sufficient to support herding and agricultural activities. Evidence of bone modifications reveals further details regarding human activities and the way ancient communities exploited environmental resources. This research highlights the significance of organic remains analysis in reconstructing past economy and understanding subsistence behaviours in prehistoric societies. | ||
