Abstract

Arheološki lokalitet Banski dvori, Zagreb bio je naseljen od 7. st. pr. Kr. do 20. st., što ukazuje na njegovu bogatu povijest. U svrhu izrade ovog istraživanja prikupljeni su životinjski ostaci s arheološkog lokaliteta Banski dvori te su dostavljeni na analizu u Arheozoološki laboratorij Zavoda za anatomiju, histologiju i embriologiju Veterinarskog fakulteta Sveučilišta u Zagrebu. Životinjski su ostaci bili podijeljeni na prapovijesno razdoblje (7. do 2. st. pr. Kr.), srednji i novi vijek (13. do 18. stoljeće) te moderno i suvremeno razdoblje (19. i 20. stoljeće). Utvrđeno je da je najveći udio životinjskih ostataka pripadao govedima, nakon čega slijede svinje, a zatim mali preživači. Od ukupnog broja determiniranih kostiju ptica, najveći udio činile su kokoši, nakon kojih slijede guske, purani i patke. Osim mesa domaćih životinja, tadašnje stanovništvo za prehranu je koristilo i određene količine mesa divljači, a pronađeni su i ostaci školjkaša i riba. Mali preživači, posebice ovce, korištene su za meso, a goveda za rad, dobivanje sekundarnih proizvoda i meso. Prehrana stanovnika Banskih dvora odlikuje se raznovrsnošću te konzumacijom mesa mlađih dobnih kategorija što ukazuje da su bili bolje platežne moći.

Abstract (english)

Archaeological site Banski dvori, Zagreb was inhabited from the 7th BC until today which results in its long history. To carry out this research, excavated animal remains from the archaeological site were studied in the Archaeozoological laboratory of the Department of Anatomy, Histology and Embryology, Faculty of Veterinary Medicine. According to radiocarbon analysis animal remains were divided into three groups: Prehistory (7th to 2nd century BC), Middle and New Ages (13th to 18th century) and the Modern and Contemporary era (19th and 20th century). The largest share of animal remains belonged to the cattle, followed by pigs and small ruminants. Of the total number of determined bird bones, the largest share consists of chickens, followed by geese, turkeys and ducks. Inhabitants of Banski dvori site were also hunting. A small sample of shells and fish was also found. Small ruminants, especially sheep, were bred for meat, while cattle were used for traction, secondary products and meat. Inhabitants of Banski dvori were of the high-status which is reflected in their diet: diversity of species, presence of wild animals, luxury food and juvenile animals.
