Abstract

This article both introduces our Special Issue on “Zooarchaeology and Human Ecodynamics in East Polynesia” and reviews recent research from East Polynesia at large. The seven articles and discussion essay derive from a symposium at the 14th International Council for Archaeozoology (ICAZ) conference in Cairns, Australia (2023). To contextualize these contributions, we review recent studies (2016–2024) from the region relating to human–animal relationships, including morphological, ancient DNA, and stable isotope research. Seven areas or themes emerge from our review, representing substantive, analytical and technical domains. These include (1) geographic coverage; (2) methodological issues; (3) assessments of anthropogenic impacts; (4) studies of domestic and commensal taxa; (5) animals in social, ritual and symbolic roles; (6) engagement with historical records and traditional ecological knowledges (TEK); and (7) emerging technologies. We conclude with a brief summary of recent achievements and propose future directions for zooarchaeological studies in East Polynesia and the wider Pacific.

东波利尼西亚动物考古学的进展：特刊导言、回顾（2016-2024 年）和评估

本文既介绍了我们的特刊 "东波利尼西亚的动物考古学和人类生态动力学"，也回顾了东波利尼西亚的最新研究。这七篇文章和讨论文章来自于在澳大利亚凯恩斯举行的第 14 届国际考古动物学理事会（ICAZ）会议（2023 年）的研讨会。为了说明这些文章的来龙去脉，我们回顾了该地区最近（2016-2024 年）有关人类与动物关系的研究，包括形态学、古 DNA 和稳定同位素研究。我们的回顾产生了七个领域或主题，代表了实质性、分析性和技术性领域。其中包括：(1) 地理覆盖范围；(2) 方法问题；(3) 人为影响评估；(4) 家养和共生类群研究；(5) 社会、仪式和象征角色中的动物；(6) 历史记录和传统生态知识 (TEK) 的参与；以及 (7) 新兴技术。最后，我们简要总结了最近取得的成就，并提出了东波利尼西亚和更广泛的太平洋地区动物考古学研究的未来方向。

期刊介绍： Archaeology in Oceania is published online and in print versions three times a year: April, July, October. It accepts articles and research reports in prehistoric and historical archaeology, modern material culture and human biology of ancient and modern human populations. Its primary geographic focus is Australia, the islands of the Pacific Ocean and lands of the western Pacific rim. All articles and research reports accepted as being within the remit of the journal and of appropriate standard will be reviewed by two scholars; authors will be informed of these comments though not necessarily of the reviewer’s names.
