Abstract

La comparaison de restes zooarchéologiques provenant de trois régions du monde méditerranéen - 1/ le centre-ouest de l’Italie ; 2/ l’Afrique du Nord centrale ; 3/ la Grèce et la mer Égée - révèle des aspects de continuité et de changement dans l’introduction d’animaux dans les pratiques alimentaires et économiques au cours de l’Antiquité tardive. Un certain nombre de dispositifs sont manifestement touchés, comme en témoignent les modifications apportées à la taille et à la nature de l’élevage d’ovinés-caprinés dans de nombreuses régions, en particulier dans le centre-ouest de l’Italie. D’autres éléments, tels que la demande constante de porc dans les grands sites urbains jusqu’à la fin de l’Antiquité, ou plus généralement l’apport et la fréquence de divers types d’animaux dans les sites ruraux plus petits, montrent une cohérence temporelle plus marquée entre la période romaine et les phases postérieures de l’Antiquité tardive. Des explications possibles de ces phénomènes sont explorées, notamment la manière dont les grands sites urbains concentrent de multiples demandes de denrées alimentaires (y compris les viandes) et ont pu, à leur tour, exercer une pression sur les pratiques d’élevage locales et distantes selon les besoins, y compris dans des états apparemment « en déclin » lors de la transition entre l’époque romaine et l’Antiquité tardive.
