Abstract

This research is helping to understand the role of the hyena in the origin and accumulation history of the site of Érd's bone assemblage, in which the role of Neanderthals is also clearly highlighted. It attempts to provide an insight into the destructive potential of this carnivore at Érd and in the corpus of Hungarian sites.
