Table 10.9 Cattle anatomical representation

The representation of carcass components is, for the most part, the same for all periods of occupation. There does not seem to be any general concentration of particular anatomical units although, when the elements are compared by period (Table 10.10) , there are clearly disproportionate numbers of scapula, distal humeri and pelves from late Roman contexts. Perhaps, during this period, the preparation of joints of salted or smoked ham was of particular importance.
