Abstract

The aim of the study was to investigate the osteometric investigation of the remains of sheep skeleton from archaeological excavations in Kibyra Antique City located in Golhisar district of Burdur. In the study, the remains of the totally measurable 370 bones revealed in the archaeological excavations of Bouleuterion-Odeion, Stadion, Agora and Facade of the ancient city of Kibyra were used.
