Summary

Table B.1 assembles an extensive series of documented nonmodern dog burials. In the Old World, I have included only summary entries for a series from Northern Europe (Scandinavia) as well as a series from continental Europe and England inventoried by Prummel (1992). That step is due to their quantity, along with the fact that most primary sources are not in English and I have not seen them. Beyond those, there are certainly even more from the Old World, but I have only passing familiarity with much of the literature pertaining to that side of the world. For example, Trantalidou (2006: 100–102, Tables 3, 4, 5) has inventoried a series of sites in ancient Greece where dog remains are found buried with people. Similarly, Mazzorin & Minniti (2006: 63–64) have called attention to settings in both ancient Greece and Italy, more than 2,000 years old, where dogs were buried with people, or by themselves. Likewise, Wilkens (2006: 134–135) has also focused on several such sites in Italy. In addition, Nikolova (2005: 105) has indicated some from the Balkan region of Europe. As well, besides the dramatic number of dog burials at Ashkelon, in Israel, Wapnish & Hesse (1993: 67–70) have indicated others from that region.

The list is more extensive for the New World, due simply to my greater familiarity with that setting, though certainly, there are more.
