"This volume presents for the first time the complete ensemble of bone and ivory carvings acquired from excavations of the Institut français d'archéologie orientale in Cairo, carried out in Fustat between 1985 and 2003. The book presents detailed catalogue of 477 of the most representative objects carved in the round and in relief, and chapters containing synthetical conclusions which derived from their description and interpretation based on broad research of analogous pieces. Each object is presented in textual and pictorial form (71 plates of drawings, 53 plates with colour photos, and 9 figures wich 50 objects). The text is supplied by index, concordances, bibliography, glossary, lists of drawings and photos. Individual items, types and groups of objects are analyzed and receive extensive comparative studies on a broad background from Egypt and neighboring countries"--Page 4 of cover.

Bone tool studies are at a crossroads. A current path is to go beyond the concatenation of methods or concepts borrowed from other disciplines and aim instead at a truly integrated approach that is more in line with the objectives of interdisciplinary and transdisciplinary research. 0The papers in this volume follow this direction by adopting various forms of dialogue and integration between old and new methods and approaches, including technological analysis, usewear analysis, typology, zooarchaeology, stable isotope analysis, experimental archaeology or spatial analysis. They represent a mixture of methodological issues, case studies, and discussions of larger cultural and historical phenomena that span thousands of years and many parts of the World, from South Asia to the Near East and Europe, and from North to South America. The synergies deriving from these multi-perspective approaches lead to the repeated identification of diverse social aspects of past societies, including the identification of general social contexts of bone tool production and use, transmission of knowledge, the symbolic dimensions of artifacts, and intergroup relations as well as warfare and state formation processes.0All these papers grew out of communications presented at the 13th meeting of the Worked Bone Research Group (WBRG) on October 7th-13th, 2019, at the Département d?anthropologie, Université de Montréal, Canada. The WBRG is an official working group of the International Council for Archaeozoology (ICAZ) dealing with the study of worked faunal remains from archaeological sites.
