Description

The Quaternary Zoology collection only comprises of faunal skeletal remains (archaeological and geological) from the Quaternary period (the last 2.6 million years). The main focuses are the Danish and Greenlandic faunal remains but due to a couple of historical collections it is also very strong in South American faunal remains (including, as the only exception, some human remains) and to some extent faunal remains from Western Asia and South East Asia.
