SUMMARY:Division of labour in European Prehistory: New insights from human
  skeletal remains - Dr. Sébastien Villotte (PACEA\, CNRS-Université Bord
 eaux 1)

DESCRIPTION:The division of labour in European Prehistory is usually infer
 red through indirect means\, for instance by analogy with ethnographic stu
 dies. At present\, the study of skeletal activity-related morphologies see
 ms to be the only way to directly question the existence of such a special
 isation of cooperating individuals that characterizes almost all contempor
 ary traditional societies. Dr Villotte will present some of these variatio
 ns related to mechanical stresses experienced during life\, the many poten
 tial pitfalls of this kind of study\, and several examples of analyses tha
 t were used to infer the division of labour in Prehistory.
