They have been resources, symbols, divine beings, pets, and dangerous adversaries. Traces of these relationships are found everywhere in the archaeological record: in bones and tools, in art, in evidence of rituals, and in landscapes shaped by these interactions. In this issue of RISS, we invite reflection on the relationship between humans and animals\u2014past and present\u2014viewed through an archaeological lens.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-left\">We welcome contributions that examine how animals are expressed in material culture\u2014whether through rock art, figurines, and amulets, or, for instance, animal-style ornamentation. Mythical beasts, hybrids, and monsters have also played a central role in the human imagination, and we encourage submissions that explore the symbolic, mythical, and cultural significance of animals within archaeological material. We also welcome texts concerning animal sacrifice, animals in mythology, sacred animals, and animal costumes in ritual contexts.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-left\">Animals as a resource constitute another key theme. Zooarchaeological analyses of bone assemblages can shed light on hunting, animal husbandry, and diet, while objects made of bone, horn, antler, and ivory provide insights into craftsmanship, technology, and the prestige associated with animal-derived materials.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-left\">We also welcome contributions that employ natural science methods\u2014such as isotope analyses and DNA studies\u2014to explore diet, mobility, and environmental changes. Equally relevant are texts addressing human impact on ecosystems\u2014ranging from overexploitation and fishing to the spread of (invasive) species\u2014and, conversely, how animals have influenced human evolution, such as in the emergence of lactose tolerance.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-left\">We are further interested in how humans have categorized and understood animals across cultures and time\u2014what is considered edible, sacred, or unclean, and how the boundaries between pets, livestock, and pests are shaped historically and culturally. We also encourage contributions that challenge the privileged status of humans and view animals as agents capable of action and meaning-making\u2014drawing on perspectives such as the \"Animal Turn\" and posthumanism\u2014and that ask what it means to understand the human being itself as an animal.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-left\">All texts that shed light on the theme of \"Animals\" in various ways are welcome for RISS issue no. 11. Contributions may cover any time period, location, and field of research within\u2014or related to\u2014archaeology. We accept academic articles, essays, adapted student papers, interviews, illustrations, photographs, book and exhibition reviews, and creative writing from students, professionals, and other interested parties.
