Abstract

Included among the coherent archaeological data that gives archaeologists the best insight into intangible facets of past cultures, in particular nomadic groups, are burials and mortuary customs. Study of kurgans and associated material culture will shed a blaze of light on the chronology, ethnography, social classes, subsistence system and dietary diversity of the so-called Eurasian Warrior Nomads, bringing further aspects of their culture into light. The present paper explored the animal remains attested in the kurgans of Jafar Abad and Tu Ali Sofla in the southern Aras River Basin of Northwest Iran. Thus, the animal burials and the grave goods made of animal bones and marine animals, which account for a major part of the recovered assemblages, are presented and discussed here
